Time to Type!

One of the Utah state goals for fourth graders is to type 20 words a minute. This is the technology grade on their report cards. Our fourth grade team really pushes this because it will be so important for the kids to be able to type quickly and accurately as they go through school. As with most things, practice makes perfect. 

It is very important for the kids to be using all their fingers and to avoid looking at their hands. Fingers on the home row!

The following is a list of practice programs and games you can access on the internet.
