Fourth graders actually come to computer class twice a week. On Thursday afternoon the class only concentrates on keyboarding. Keyboarding through third grade is introduction and review of the home row keys. Our fourth graders are now learning the entire keyboard through a series of 14 lessons. Then our keyboarding will consists of online typing programs. This is a life-time skill that they will probably never even remember learning.
On Friday, the students actually come for computer class and now we are working on their Google slide presentation about themselves. The students are so very creative and transitioning from PowerPoint with Microsoft Office to Google slides has been so very smooth. Giving their presentations to their classmates is always an exciting time.
Have a wonderful fall break.
