 Students are encouraged to use correct finger spacing for letters and numbers on the keyboard.  The goal by the end of the 6 weeks is 35 words per minute (wpm) with no errors.  We will take several timed tests and the times will be recorded.  At the end of the 6 weeks, the top wpm for each student will determine his/her typing grade.
