Here are a few links we'll be using a lot to start the year:
Typing.com (grades 2-5)
This year, we will be pushing all students to practice their typing skills as often as they can. Typing.com is the website that we'll be using to track progress, give typing tests, and play typing games. Remember: keep your fingers on HOME ROW when they aren't typing!
Dance Mat Typing (grade 1)
First grade will be learning the basics of keyboarding as well using Dance Mat Typing. This lively typing tutor is very replayable and is good at starting slow, but building the whole keyboard around the Home Row. Once students have mastered the basics, we may move on to typing.com by the end of the year.
