Prekinderegarten students should use technology to assist and benefit their learning. They should develop an awareness of controls and handling various technology units in order to become comfortable and independent users. Technology helps prekindergarteners to develop appropriate concepts. They should be able to use the parts of computer input systems and operate voice/sound recorders and touch screens. Students in this category should also use technology to create and express their own ideas.
Pre-K Technology TEKS lay the foundation by enabling students to become increasingly aware of technology devices and their controls. In this stage, students experience the information gained and practiced from technology.
Starting in Pre-K students are required to name and use input devices on a computer. This continues through the upper grades. Students are still supposed to know the names and purpose of the input devices on a computer. This allows several years for students to master these TEKS.

I think it is important that Pre-K students be exposed to computers - they can learn so much at that age - seems like computers are no problem to them.
