So before school even started today we experenced the first major issue of the year. Students that needed to work on typing lessons came in to work before school and we found that we couldn't open the www.freetypinggame.net site. Students can still access this site at home and finish their 30 lessons, but I did locate another website that the students can do the same lessons, I have posted a list in the classroom to show the 30 lessons and how they coordinate with the new site. The new site iswww.typingweb.com and there are only 6 lessons to complete: Homerow, Top Row, Bottom Row, Basic Punctuation, Numeric Keypad, and Symbols.
ALL Lessons are due Jan 21st. 7th grade Digitools has started their first report they are completing the Report on page 94-95 saving as "LastnameL51" and it is due on Wednesday by the end of the period - they need to print it out. I lectured on Report format yesterday the students took notes and printed them out to use. We reviewed that information today before starting the report. On Thursday they will complete a report on page 99 - 100 and create a Title Page for this report vs using a heading. This will be on Friday at the end of the period - along with their files from their student folders.
Today they did a short 1 minute timer and then worked on their Project for Memos and Letters - these will be due tomorrow and are to be submitted before the student leaves class.
Digitools 7 - welcome to the Blog - we are going to do a project on Letter and Memo and the students learned today how to create Letterheads, Envelopes, and Center the Letter Vertically - Hopefully they remember. The project will be due on Tuesday the 7th and all three elements are to be submitted.
