What 3rd Grade Students Learn
3rd grade is the turning point where typing becomes a practical skill. Students type faster than they can write by hand, and typing becomes their preferred way to express ideas. The goal is 15-20 WPM with reasonable accuracy.
- Typing complete words fluently
- Short sentences with basic punctuation
- Reaching 15-20 WPM
- Capital letters with Shift key
Parent Tip
Many schools start requiring typed assignments in 3rd grade. If your child can type 15+ WPM, they're in great shape. Focus on accuracy first — speed follows naturally.
