Welcome to Fall!

The leaves are changing and the temperature is dropping. It's the time of year for bonfires, raking leaves, and, for some, TPing! I remember those days of trying not to get caught throwing the TP around someone's yard. It's all in good fun, just remember to be respectful when you're painting a friend's lawn white.

Here is a new website for you to try out: www.fun4thebrain.com. There are some fun games to play to review your math, science, and English skills. I know some of you will find it too elementary, but try it out and see how you do!

6th grade ONLY

Good morning 6th graders!

We have been learning the home row and it is very important that you know it well. There are many reasons to learn the right fingers to use on the right keys. You will eventually become faster and faster at keying by continuing to take your time and follow the keyboarding techniques.

Remember:

1. Sit up straight with both feet on the floor.

2. Fingers curved and upright over the home row keys.

3. Wrists low, but not touching the desk or keyboard.

4. Keep your fingers on the home row keys and stretch to reach other keys.

Here are a couple typing games to help increase your speed and accuracy with the home row keys.

Space Invaders

The Frogs Are Off Their Diet
