[quote=Anonymous]Spelling is not emphasized. It is learned through immersion, context, and sounding out. Reading is heavy to help kids self teach themselves spelling. Gone are the days of sending home vocab lists so a kid could write out each word 10x to memorize spelling. Typing is also self taught. My kids hunt & peck on the keyboard and have become pretty fast at it..between typing up stories on wixie, playing roblux, and using my phone to text Dh, the kids have become fairly self sufficient in "typing". Having said that, yes, I too have wanted a formal typing class, but it isnt offered in fcps ES. In this day and age, typing should be paramount in the lower levels.[/quote]
