THE LESSON MISSION

  • I can demonstrate my knowledge of the computer keyboard and increase my typing speed.
​
  • I can demonstrate my coding and programming skills by completing an online Coding Course.


HYPERDRIVE TYPISTS COMPETITION

Each year we have a Hyperdrive Typists competition for every grade level. You will work all year in your classrooms and at home to complete a typing program and increase your words per minute and accuracy. Once a month, Mrs. Tyner will announce the 3 Hyperdrive Typists in the lead for each grade level. The top three students in each grade level at the end of the year get medals on awards day!
