[ISLMA-Share] Typing skills programs on the web for free

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

I found wonderful resources for little ones on teacherspayteachers.com that
help explain which fingers go with which keys - something typing club does
not explain. Kids appreciated being able to use these colored charts to
practice at their desks.
