Dear Families, 

Lincoln School is introducing students to keyboarding skills.  We are very fortunate to provide all students access to a typing software program called Type To Learn 4 (TTL4).  This is a comprehensive keyboarding program with a futuristic theme, engaging activities, and real world typing.  Grades 3-5 students have been introduced to this program in our computer lab and may have additional access in the classroom.  Additionally, all Lincoln School students can use Type to Learn 4 from home if you have Internet access!
