WPM Test Procedures & Info.

Prepare to take the test:

• Schedule the computer lab for a time to assess your students. 
• Submit the form to Schedule the WPM Test. You will receive a confirmation by email the following day. Please make a note of this date  in your plans.
• Click on the image in the sidebar to *get the three handouts you will need. 

Here is how the test day will work:

• You will receive an email reminder about the test on the morning of your scheduled test date. If you don't receive the reminder, the test has not been assigned. Please contact me via email to try to get the test assigned.
• Students will start with a warm up lesson, then move on to type a paragraph. While students are typing, teachers can use the *Keyboarding Checklist to assess technique. This is now available through PowerTeacher, its a report.
• After students have completed the testing, you can access the *Exercise Summary Report to access a list of students' wpm scores. 
• Use the *Technique Grading Rubric to assign a technique grade, based on your assessment.

*Handouts are available in the sidebar, see Get Handouts for Trimester Assessment.
