Touch Typing is a skill that greatly improves performance in using the Internet and writing report.  Time spent practicing the correct technique of using all eight fingers starting on the home row (thumbs reserved for using the space bar) will pay off for many years to come.

 

During Technology Classes at Barnstable United, the students get some time using TypingPal.  Their account can be used anywhere by using the following link: https://https://school.typingpal.com/index_ecole.asp?barngr45 

 

Some students have also benefited by downloading the free software available at http://www.rapidtyping.com/ to practice on their home computer.
