KeyWords Resources for Teachers
The resources that are available for KeyWords can help teachers find out how
to use KeyWords to teach their students touch-typing. Resources include:
• reference materials provided with KeyWords and KeyWords RP that you
can use to make handouts and transparencies
• a review of ergonomic typing posture and body placement
• a sample lesson plan for using KeyWords in a classroom with NEOs
Materials for Handouts and Transparencies
You’ll find KeyWords Resources in two places:
• In the KeyWords Extras folder on the AlphaSmart Manager CD (and in the
AlphaSmart Manager download files), you’ll find a file named KeyWords
SmartApplet Master.pdf. This file contains helpful handouts and
transparencies. You’ll also find this file on the Documentation CD for
NEO 1 and NEO 2 in the SmartApplets folder.
• In KeyWords RP (Renaissance Place), you can click Resources in the list
of KeyWords tasks to see many of the same resources.
The handouts and transparency masters that are available are described in
the following table.
