They aren’t games, but I figure we’ll find a few of those to let the girls practice too. These are the programs I liked the best for homeschooling purposes. I decided to research some free online typing programs to see what I like in terms of lessons, reporting, accounts and navigation, and I gave the kids some experience with them too so they could decide which program they wanted to use.
They hunt and peck for every letter, and sometimes it takes them several minutes just to find the letter they need. The kids are pretty good with the mouse, but aren’t too familiar with the keyboard. Since Lena learned that the Mars rover is controlled by coding here on Earth she’s wanted to do more with computers.
Now that we have our office/homeschool room set up and the family computer is back online I decided it’s time to start teaching the girls to type.
