It is absolutley amazing to me to watch the growth of new students at Gibbs. The Kindergarten students will begin learning how to turn CAPS LOCK off and on. Students will type their names wit CAPS LOCK on and a second time with CAPS LOCK off. You can help your child at home by allowing him/her to type his/her name which will enhance letter recogntion skills. For students who have already mastered letter recognition, try giving them a flash cards with pictures and labels to type. Students in Ms. Robbins' class, the nation of Australia, may be intersted in a link about Australia from the National Geographic Kids website. The blog includes pictures and facts about Australian animals and other native aspects. http://kidsblogs.nationalgeographic.com/handsonexplorer
