Typing Club Reminder

Dear Students/Parents:

The original note regarding typing club is included below.  Please be sure that you are practicing daily/weekly as suggested.  I recognize that some of you will be able to move faster through the levels than others.  Please know that I'm checking the time that you put forth to achieve and consider this as much as your level.  If you are working hard and doing your best, I am satisfied with your level of performance.

Thank you for working hard.  Please let me know if you have any questions.

Learning how to type is a skill that is introduced in 3rd grade and reviewed in 4th grade. This year staff has decided to try a new program called Typing Club to improve student typing fluency.  The link can be located on the Tuckahoe Home Page for easy access. Your child's login is their student ID and password (birthdate: 2 digits for the month 2 digits for the day and the last 2 digits for the year they were born). 


The program works best if done 5 days a week (weekends are ok) for 10 minutes.  Staff is asking that this be done at home as a nightly assignment.  If your child is in Extended Day, they have access to computers that can be used for typing practice.  If home internet access is an issue, please contact me so we can design a plan to meet your students needs.
