Does anyone use keyboarding practice with their 1st and 2nd graders? If yes, can you suggest a good program for this? I've seen Type to Learn, Jr. and then saw there is also Type to Learn Jr. New Keys for Kids. What would you say are the main differences between the two programs?
I currently use Type to Learn 3 with my 3rd and 4th graders and am happy with it.
Online: I created a website with typing games for my after-school group to use.
Over the years it's grown and now has over 50 typing games! It's a kid-safe site -- I work hard to ensure that when links go to outside pages, those pages don't have inappropriate ads or links to non-educational games, and I update the site regularly.

Also, I just put up a unit on internet safety, with instructional video and an online quiz,
Those old versions will run fine on modern Windows computers if you download the patch that the publisher has on their website. I did this for a computer lab and got great software for around $5 a pop, though it was extra work to install the patch.
Hello I am a retired Science teacher. I have created a team of 20 people to create a cartoon storyline on Space Science. We are in the middle of a rewrite and need teachers of the 5th-6th grades to read and comment. You will be given access to the first website cartoon to see what we have done.
Once the cartoon is done, there will be Interactive Diagrams to fortify the storyline and then a third part Quiz - Game section. The end product will be a DVD for sales, Internet Downloads and several other delivery revenue streams
This project came about because of the high stakes testing in Massachusetts and nation wide exams.
2 companies are interested in this project. There is the potential of employment for this project and others as a consultant.
If you are interested, get in touch with me. We'd like your thoughts, impressions of your students interest in the story. There is potential for many other projects. We will review the applications and explain in greater detail what the next step would be.
Short of having the kids Blackberry you their answers from their seats - I thought a heavily modded PSP or DS might be interesting to see in action for delivering content or playing educational games. Somewhere there's an article about this, anyone in here actually doing it?

I have started using it. I see that the post is old, but I just now thought of using the DS :) I teach English as Second Language. I recently found a software called My English Coach for Spanish Speakers. I also use various math games. I also like Professor Layton and the Curious Village. In TN, our standardized testing for grades 3-8 is changing for math. It is more "what concept applies to this real life situation" and the Professor game really works that way! Its great.
Are teachers able to download their lessons onto a CD are into a file on their computer?
Also, when you inform teachers at the FAQ section about the option to close their account, there is a typo. I'm not trying to be nitpicky (sp?). I just know that people will wonder, and sometimes education-related products/documents get analyzed even more for accuracy (smile).
