Lesson Plan
Paragraph writing is a skill emphasized in grades 1-3, and students in those grades often enjoy typing and printing their work for others to see. At that level, however, computer skills can vary widely. How do you quickly polish students' skills so they can type with confidence and competence? The following activity will help students quickly acquire the skills they need.
This activity can be completed as a whole group, in small groups, or individually at a single classroom computer.
