Wow! Here it is almost the end of the first six weeks period! Students have now completed the letters on the keyboard. Practice practice practicewith good posture!
They have been exposed to a lot of information and they have met the challenge well. I have tried to teach them in ways they can remember. Remember, listening is fundamental to learning, no matter what the student's age is.
We have learned the ten keyboarding posture rules and a lot of vocabulary terms dealing with hardware and peripherals. Ask your child what a peripheral is. Encourage him/her to keep all of their handouts in their notebook and their notebook grade will be a super-easy 100!
Some students still have a talking problem - some more than others. I have rearranged the seating charts in an effort to seperate talkers from others. I have sent a couple of them to visit with Mr. Garner. Teaching, listening and learning must go on!
We will be focusing mainly on touchkeying the rest of this six weeks and the next. Students will be applying their skills the rest of the school year. It will benefit your child greatly to practice keying and good posture at home.
Check out the calendar! Encourage your child to prepare himself/herself to listen and learn each day.
Thank You,
Lee Anna Whitten
