Keyboarding
Desk Reference Cards in the Classroom:
Placed
on a student’s desk these cards accomplish
reading
and keyboarding goals:
Reading:
Early readers, special needs students, and ESL
students can see the relationship between upper
and lower-case letters in the computer keyboard
configuration.
Keyboarding:
Special needs students have a visual daily reference
to the computer keyboard making it a familiar
tool.
These
goals are accomplished because:
- Upper/lower case letter combinations
are shown on each
computer key
- Number/letter/character keyboard placement
is visual on
the card
- Provides pre-keyboarding awareness of the
keyboard letter
layout.
- Special needs students can practice keyboarding finger
placement right on this card
With a Keyboarding
Desk Reference Card on the student’s desk,
the computer keyboard becomes a familiar tool
for all young students, including those with
special needs.
