Library & Typing!

Students had library today. Ms. Flowers has begun teaching them how to type. They worked on learning the home keys and were encouraged to type without looking at their hands. It was definitely not an easy task – but once they were reminded that learning where these keys are will improve their typing AND texting speeds, students recommitted themselves to the task of memorizing their placement.

Once they reviewed the placement, students used this website to practice their typing: Dance Mat Typing. Encourage your students to practice at home if they have time.

Reminder: Artifacts are due tomorrow – students are welcome to stay with me after school tomorrow to finish their artifacts. Students have a vocabulary quiz tomorrow as well. There is no school on Friday or Monday.
