2ND & 3RD GRADES

Before going to Dance Mat Typing last week, I had the students learn the Parts of a Computer by watching a short video clip that introduced the keyboard, the monitor and the mouse.  After they watched the video, they had to click on the correct part of the computer that was being described.  Then, the students went to another website that tested their knowledge of the various parts of the keyboard (the mouse, the keyboard, the monitor, the speakers, etc.)  Lastly, the students got to click on the link for Dance Mat Typing and try it.  They didn’t have a lot of time for this so they are going to revisit this website again this week for about 15-20 minutes.  Afterwards, they may go to any ‘letter’ game in abcya.com .
