Brad Flickinger is doing a podcast series at the moment on Teaching Tech from Early Years to Year 6.
One of the gems to come out of his first podcast - "Teaching Tech to Kindergarteners" is the website - Typing TOTS. His rationale is simple - every child will know the computer keyboard by Year 1. It is about understanding the layout of the keyboard, where everything is, and getting proficient speed entering words.
I am also aware that some students struggle with the computer keyboard higher up the school as well. Typing TOTS will make a huge difference!
Try it, it works!
