Typing Homework for 3rd and 4th Graders!

Hello Parents/Guardians,

On the week of Oct 3, I will be handing out a typing log which require 3rd and 4th grade students to type 40 minutes a week using any typing program. I strongly urge you to use our school wide web based typing program called Type to Learn 4. There is no cost to you. You just need to download it to your computer at home. The instructions are on your child's teacher's website under the Document section.

This year I decided if the student already types at the level of our typing benchmarks, then they will not need to turn in a weekly log, however, continued practice is suggested. If a 3rd Grader types 21 WPM or higher and a 4th Grader 26 WPM or higher, then they are excluded from the homework.

If you have any questions regarding the download, please let me know.

Thanks,
Rasha Sachdeva
