Welcome to the Computer Lab!

 

 

Don't forget to recycle those old cell phones and empty ink jet/laser jet cartridges!

Our computer lab earns money $$ for each ink cartridge and cell phone to buy more equipment such as headphones, printer ink and other supplies.

The student earns 1 "Recycling Reward" ticket for each ink cartridge and 2 tickets for each cell phone or laser cartridge!

Remember, 5 tickets earns a trip to the treasure box!

 

Typing/Keyboarding

3rd-5th graders: Keep working on your typing at home! Remember, to meet your Mavis Beacon goal you have to practice, practice, practice!

Tips: Grab a book or cereal box, open Word pad or Microsoft Word and practice your fingering and accuracy. Buy typing software, or buy an old typewriter from a yard sale!

The key to good typing is speed + accuracy!
