In The Curriculum

Why It Works

In Spot Check: Sentences, students are assessed on using both hands to type individual sentences. This Spot Check measures student accuracy with punctuation and use of the space bar. Students speed is measured in Words Per Minute (WPM) and accuracy is measured by the percentage of correct keys hit.

How It Works

  1. Type each row of sentences as quickly and accurately as possible.
