Welcome to Keyboarding for the Christian School and Home!
This is the companion website for the textbook, Keyboarding for the Christian School. Designed for students in middle school through high school with a Biblical perspective; lessons include typing drills, timings, letters, envelopes, APA and MLA reports (the ONLY book that features both), centering, and even proofreader's marks. The textbook is brief--only 78 pages--to be used in conjunction with other curriculum or as a refresher and is available for purchase through iUniverse, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, etc.

Question of the Week
A reader emailed a question regarding the ebook version of Keyboarding for the Christian School. Her question is this: "Am I able to print the ebook?"
This will be available for purchase soon through this website!
If you have questions; please email me. If you want to know more about a relationship with Jesus Christ; please email me and I will be glad to share my testimony of how God can change lives.
Proper typing technique will ensure accuracy and speed. Look for these things: back straight, feet flat on floor, hands on homerow, eyes on the copy, etc.
To help with speed and accuracy; dictate song lyrics or Bible verses as your student types. Then, check for accuracy and have your student make the appropriate corrections to help the learning process.
