Google Slides
The timeline of each level is flexible, but this unit was written with the intent of covering grades 3-4. However, homeschooling is flexible so feel free to use each unit as you see fit. Depending on the level of your child, you may be able to skip ahead into another level without starting right from level 1 or zoom through quickly for eager learners. Just check first as each level is meant to be a building block off the previous level.
Unit Pacing
In my homeschool classroom, I schedule 1 lesson per week. Projects may vary between 1-3 classes
For eager learners or older students, they could zoom through this at a must faster pace.
What to do when they finish?
Typing, typing, typing. We spend the rest of our computer classes in the year focusing on learning how to type and continuing to play around and create in Google Docs.
For typing, we love TypingClub which is free!
Simply open them up in Google Slides and go File > Make a Copy to create your own editable copy for a student to use.
Alternatively, they are also available for free through my Teachers Pay Teachers store if that is easier.
