Technology Integration in K-5

All,

I'm looking for models of tech integration for students in grades K - 5.

If you fully (or partially) integrate the use of tech resources (ipads,
netbooks, or online tools) in the grades mentioned above, I would like to
learn more of your model of inclusion.

Currently, our kids in grades 1-5 attend computer classes (in a dedicated
computer lab) once or twice a week. In these classes they learn to use
applications ranging from Kid Pix and Timeliner to MS Office.

We're looking to charge the classroom teachers with implementing more
innovation and creativity via integration of these applications/tools into
their existing curriculum. Where it fits... Ideally, we'd like the content
to drive the need for technology. Not technology to drive classroom
instruction.

Thanks in advance for all insight.
