Technology Skills

We may not be doing SBAC in 2nd grade but we are learning skills we need to have in life and get prepared for 3rd - when we DO have to take the test and keyboard quite a bit. 
It's been a little slow because my students don't have this technology at home. But, today my awesome kiddo's began typing up their reports - after choosing pictures to print for their covers last week.
For all, this is the first time they've typed, Googled for images, and printed a report and they are so completely excited about it!

What Type of Typist Are You?

Well, in 2nd grade we probably aren't the best typists - yet! But we can be - practicing typing is so much fun! Did you know in 3rd grade you get to take a fun test on the computer? 

But, first we have to learn to type. Here are a couple (FREE) links you can use to practice keyboarding at home!

And this one is so much fun! Plus you can practice a fun English accent!
