 * **Lesson: Storybird**

Your username and password is the same as your Rosetta Stone information. ||
 * ** Lesson: Introduction to Keyboarding **
 * Rotation: #21 **
 * Date: March 23-30, 2012 **


 * What is Home Row and why do we need to keep our fingers there? **
 * Pointer finger keys have bumps on them. (F and J) This helps us remember how to get back to home row. **
 * Is there anything similar about typing and playing an instrument? (piano, violin, guitar?)**

Students in 2nd Grade will be introduced to keyboarding. They will learn about the Home Row and a demonstration of Typing Pal Online. They will log on to the website and practice their first apple. Their username and password is the same as their Rosetta Stone information. It is encouraged that the children practice this at home and focus on accuracy rather than speed while using correct fingering. || **Keyboading Flipchart** Discuss the first 3-4 slides only. Typing Pal Online || **Rotation: #19 and #20** **Date: Feb 28-Mar 13, 2012** Students will finalize their grassland animal research by completing a diagram of their animal of study. All of the animals have been uploaded into KidPix templates and live on the network in the 2nd grade folder. Each student will select their animal and SAVE it in their folder as soon as they open it. It should be named Eg: African Elephant Sally (add your name to the end of the file name) Students will add TEXT, COLOR and FONT changes to the image. Add a title and their name as well. SAVE final project and print. Here is an example of a final product that I completed for you.
