The document discusses a kindergarten teacher's unit on community helpers. The teacher teaches in San Jose, California and her students use classroom computers to practice letters and numbers. For her spring unit, she teaches about different community helpers in the community and how each provides services that benefit the community as a whole. Her goals are for students to be able to name different community helpers, identify how they help the community, and understand how many people serve them everyday. She wants to learn how to better manage computer use for her class of 28 students and utilize the internet for class projects, including creating a website.
