Daily Typing Practice

1) Open a Word Document.

2) Save it to your Server File. Save it as Typing Diary.

You will use this same document every day. Each day, you will put the date and what you did for typing practice that day.

3) Begin the first day by taking the Typing Test. Record your score in your Typing Diary.

NOTE: You will take this test every Monday and record your score in your Typing Diary.

4) Do the KeyBoard Challenge. (You will only need to do this once.)

5) Begin Dance Mat Typing OR Begin Tux Typing (this is on your desktop).

This will take you several days—or maybe even weeks!—to finish. Record your progress each day in your Typing Diary!

After you have completed ALL levels of Dance Mat Typing or Tux Typing , you can choose from the following typing games each day to reinforce your typing skills. Record what you do each day in your Typing Diary!
