Mr. Mac's Computer Lab Rule: Facilitate Learning
• Make learning easy
• If asked, help
• If asked, adjust sound
• Ask 3 before me
• Touch only your keyboard & mouse
ABCya is a great site for practice

Keyboarding Skill Practice
By the end of October all students will be introduced to the online program Dance Mat Typing in the lab.
http://www.dancemattypingguide.com/
Please practice your keyboarding skills on a regular basis at home.
"Dance Mat Typing is structured as a series of four levels with three stages for each level. The animated animal teachers take kids through each of the 12 stages, narrating and showing them where to place their fingers on the keyboard, which fingers to use to type particular keys with onscreen cartoon hands. At the end of each stage, there is always a song by the teacher and his or her supporting cast to celebrate the kids’ accomplishments."
