Keyboard ABC’s

Posted on March 16, 2009. Filed under: Uncategorized |

I am trying to teach Bridger his ABCs. We sing the ABC song, use the colors, letters and shapes can, and identify letters on pages. I also discovered another way to teach ABC’s and also learn very basic computer skills.

We have a desktop computer that Bridger loves to sit at and play with the keyboard and mouse. I have not let him use the computer when it is on yet, but I though I would start teaching him where things were on the keyboard.

We started singing the ABC’s while pushing the corresponding buttons on the keyboard, while the computer was off. That way he can see the letters as we sing them as well as learn where they are on the computer keyboard. Eventually we will type with the computer on and learn to do other things as well.
