Re: In this day & age Keyboarding should be taught in Elemen
Posted by Sharyl -- one of the problems on 11/18/07

    is that in many schools, like ours, students are only in the
    lab one time per week. First and second grade are in lab 25
    minutes, one time per week. The third are in lab twice per
    week, 25 minutes per time. Fourth, fifth, and sixth get
    keyboarding one 50 minute period per week.

    With exposure to keyboarding only once per week, students are
    don't have opportunity to practice unless they choose to do
    this at home.
