[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That seems semi-inappropriate, especially with the slew of sexual misconduct allegations that keep cropping in this area (and nationwide). I understand the logic in covering up a child's hands, so they can learn keyboarding skills. However, there are other ways of meeting that objective. The teacher could buy cardboard covers or make their own contraption to accomplish the same intention. Something does not sit well with me when a teacher needs to say, "Now stick your hands up the leg of the boxer shorts and feel around for hand placement." You should discuss your concerns with the teacher. If she still continues to use this as a learning tool, then you may wish to reach out to the Principal and CC legal counsel for that public school district for an added effect. [/quote] Prior to having this discussion, I sincerely hope that you — not the teacher — purchase or make enough covers for a roomful of keyboarding students and take the time to set up all of the keyboards with covers. That way when you reach out to the “Principal and CC legal counsel for that public school district “ you will at least sound solution-focused. Yes, you lost me at: “The teacher could buy…or make their own…”. If, following such a complaint, with zero effort to help with the concern in any way, the reacher drops the boxer shorts (Sorry/not Sorry) and lets the kids — including yours — learn to type any which way, you can console yourself with the knowledge that your kid can always use Siri and AI instead of touch typing. Oh, and after a few giggles, the way it probably works is: “Cover the keyboards and put your hands on the home keys.” [/quote]
