Welcome to a new year at Maumelle Middle School. I am looking forward to teaching your child a skill that will aid them for years to come. Using a computer is an essential skill in the workplace and keyboarding class is designed to teach the students to touch type and the basics of Microsoft Word.
Touch typing is typing without looking at your fingers using a homerow as a guide. This class will stress learning correct computer use posture so that future stress related injuries can be avoided.
I love teaching keyboarding as it is a class where the kids learn a practical skill while staying busy throughout class. It is very hands on and the kids will somewhat work at their own pace during the 1st 9 weeks.
Thank you for your continued support for the teachers and students at MMS.
