We should all post this as our status' across the country:
CHILDREN MUST BE TAUGHT TO "type or key" IN THE 10 FINGER METHOD!
Online Standardized Tests are timed. The tests contain timed writing in addition to math computations. Time will run out even for those who would have mastered the information. Many adults still use the hunt and peck method of "typing or keying" . Keyboarding classes were removed from most schools years ago.
Why is America pretending that children have been taught the skills needed to succeed on these tests? Why are so many teachers and administrators remaining silent?
So Bring on the Mavis Beacon!
