About this resource
Description
The using digital resources assessment worksheet checks how well third graders choose and use the digital tools that help them learn and write. Children today look up words, check the weather, find their way, and research topics online, and they type and publish their own stories on a computer. This one-page assessment shows whether students know which resource fits a job and which computer skills help a writer.
How to Use This Worksheet
In Part A, students read four short jobs, such as finding out what a word means, and write the best digital resource from the word box: an online dictionary, an online encyclopedia, an online map, or a weather website. In Part B, they fill in the bubble beside the computer skill that solves each writing problem, like changing the font size or using cut and paste. In Part C, they write two sentences that explain how a computer helps a writer. Use the using digital resources assessment worksheet before a typing or publishing project, or as a quick check after a technology lesson.
What’s Included
- Part A: match four everyday jobs to the best digital resource
- Part B: three multiple-choice items on computer skills for writing
- Part C: a short written explanation of how computers help writers
- A complete answer key with a sample response
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
First, it teaches children to pick the right tool for the question, so they spend less time searching and more time learning. Second, it builds the practical computer skills students need to type, revise, save, and print their own writing. Third, the short explanation in Part C asks students to put their thinking into complete sentences, a key third grade writing standard.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Open a kid-safe online dictionary and a weather website together and let students try one job from Part A for real. After Part B, have children type a short sentence, change its font size, and move it with cut and paste. This 3rd grade digital resources worksheet also works well as a center activity next to a classroom computer or tablet.
