[Trainer-Talk] Typing program for younger students

[Greg Aikens]

Yes, TypeAbility should still work with a little one to practice what you have taught them in your lesson. A preschooler is not going to be able to listen and learn through the program like an older student would. I'm impressed you are starting with tech so early. Are you expecting the student to be touch typing or just finding the keys on the keyboard?

Subject: [Trainer-Talk] Typing program for younger students

Hi trainers,
Please, need information regarding Typing Programs for younger students.  I have used "Talking Typer", "Type Abilities", with my middle and high school students.  I am working with a very young preschooler.  The student is learning with a small computer and JAWS 18.
Thanks for any suggestions,
Jordana
