Know I would like to expose you to another amasing softwaer that you can use to enhance the learning of your students and children.

Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing


Isn't that Grate!!!!! So no more sitting down with the kids and saying Asdf, ;lkj. this comes automically to them when they use the Mavis Beacon Teaches typing program, in a more stimulating and exciting manner.

PLAY WHILE YOU LEARN IS WAHT I WOULD SAY!!!!!!!!!!!!


It also includes a number of typing games; games of some sort have been included since the first release. (The 2009 Edition for Mac OS X, published by Software MacKiev, also includes two-player competitive typing network games, integration with iTunes, and more than a thousand practice texts.) A certificate of achievement can be printed by the user upon the completion of tests.
This program is also used in many schools and homes to improve typing skills.

And Guess what !!!

There are lots of youtube videos that can assist you in using Mavis Beacon. you can also purchase your copy of Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing on line and get free downloads aswell.
