Just a quick post today to announce the winners of the $25 Barnes & Noble giftcards from day 1 of my giveaway - Janine F. and Jennifer M!! Congratulations - I've sent you both an email. :) It's not too late to enter the other 6 days - click here to win some FAB prizes!
While I'm here, I thought I would mention this awesome little site in case some of you have never heard of it. It's called Dance Mat Typing and it teaches kids to type using the home row key and ALL of their fingers!
I love to have my kiddos type stories or create PowerPoints, but let's face it, the "hunt and peck" method makes it a sloowww process! This site has 12 stages for the kids to complete and awesome animations and sounds that keep them entertained throughout the process. They actually BEG to use it and their typing really improves quickly. It's always a must to start using at the beginning of the year for me....I hope you'll give it a try and that your kiddos love it as much as mine!
Don't forget about the Cyber Monday {and Tuesday} sale happening at Teacher's Clubhouse on TpT. You can save 28% through Tuesday - just click below!
