Typing information:

Your child has a QR code they glued into the front of their agenda.

Can my child continue the typing program at home?

Students may practice typing at home using their school typing account, but this is entirely optional. The process for logging in is the same at home as it is at school. Students will log-on to https://greatheartstx.edclub.com. Click on “Log on with Clever”.  Enable your camera and scan your child’s individual QR code given to them by their teacher. No password is required. Practice from home will be included in the student’s usage and progress reports. Teachers and administration will be able to see what days students practice, for how long, and at what times. This information will help us identify students who may need additional support.
