Week of November 1st

A handy form for assessing keyboarding techniques has just been made available to you in PowerTeacher. This is a remake of the old, familiar Keyboarding Techniques Checklist that used to be available through My Home. Tthis handout is populated with student names and lists the techniques at the top of the page to facilitate a quick skills check. While assessing technique is only included on the report card for 4th and 5th grade students, the form and method of assessment is a good tool for all since the focus of early keyboarding instruction is on technique, not speed.
