Welcome, welcome, welcome to a new and exciting year here at North Middle! We are ready to jump right in to the swing things!
Sixth grade Business and Marketing students will be covering the basic components, uses and purposes of a computer and the computer system. They will also practice keyboarding skills by using the Microtype keyboarding program. Seventh grade Keyboarding students will focus more on keyboarding skills and review fundamental document processing skills, which include how to format reports, business letters and envelopes; and how to recognize errors in a document. In addition, a separate component of the business program for the eighth grade classes will include a more extensive look at Exploring Business Technologies/Business and Marketing, a course that has an overview of technology in the workplace, document processing, spreadsheets and databases. Not only are keyboarding skills reinforced, this class will also serve as a review for the computer competency test that will be administered this spring.
As we continue on through the rest of the school year, please feel free to contact me (704-639-3018 Ext. 221) or stop by to sit in class anytime you have concerns or if you would like to see the program.
Thank you for entrusting me with your child. I vow to do my best to create a positive learning environment that parallels the quality North Rowan Middle School has committed to providing your child, you as parents, and the North Rowan Community.
I look forward to being involved with your child by establishing myself as their companion in learning and also partnering with you to ensure their growth and development.
