Smartphones weren’t quite a thing yet, mind you. Space Invaders was a mainstay, and in fifth grade we would take turns playing Cube Runner and other Flash games during lunch in our classroom that by then had three desktops in the back. World of Sand, a sort of chemistry sim where pixelated elements pour in from the top of the screen and interact with one another in the petri dish of your desktop window, was a favorite. Then, in my first few numerical grades of elementary school, computer games became something we played after school. There were educational games and a lot of coloring (I loved that). What I did on that first desktop I mostly can’t remember. I used my first school computer in kindergarten, and individual desktops would remain a standard feature in my classrooms. Sure, you should be doing homework, but Carmen Sandiego is on the loose! Computer Lab Week is our ode to the classic “school” games, like Oregon Trail and Number Munchers, that kept us from being productive.
