6th Grade Keyboarding
Sixth graders take keyboarding for one quarter. Sixth grade keyboarding consists of learning the
touch method of keyboarding. At the 6th grade level, the
students become familiar with the location of the keys on the
keyboard. They also learn to change the font style
and size, change line spacing, insert clipart and move and
position the clipart on the page, and name and save their document.
In the 6th grade, the students are graded solely on their technique. This is the technique evaluation sheet used:
