Veterans’ Day Keyboarding Practice Fun Typing Lesson – Computer Applications Class Digital Activity

Description

The theme for this keyboarding fun practice lesson is everything VETERANS’ DAY (November 11). Can also be used with the Memorial Day holiday in May. This lesson is also a great awareness/educational file.  Students are learning while practicing typing.  A WIN! WIN!

I use these digital resources in my Computer Application Classes for early finishers, before a holiday break, between projects, during state testing when 1/2 the class is missing or for SUB DAYS! Some teachers have told me they use them with their ESL students to introduce them to our culture.

Topics on the slides:

• Key the 11 Major Wars fought by the USA
• Key Presidents who served in our Armed Forces
• Key a passage about the significance of the poppy
• Key a Veterans’ Day poem
• Key the Armed Forces
• and more!

These keyboarding practice lessons have quickly become my student’s favorite! I have a complete collection of these fun and engaging keyboarding activities for the entire school year…at least one for every month of school! Check out my keyboarding bundle!  They are perfect for early finishers in your computer applications classes! These files are NOT designed to teach proper finger placement. However, I encourage my students to do so when completing. They are designed to offer a FUN, ENGAGING way to get students to practice typing and increase speed and accuracy. You will want to own them all!

Just make a copy…send to your LMS…then students make a copy…and they have their own file to type in the text boxes, complete, and turn in! It’s that easy! ALL THE WORK IS DONE FOR YOU! When the students are completing these keyboarding files, YOU. CAN. HEAR. A. PIN. DROP! 🙂
