Teacher Tools is a guide for Keyboarding for the Christian School, Elementary Version. (See related review.) This guide can also be used for the elementary version of this curriculum. It is an eBook that is available for immediate download on the publisher’s website.
Teacher Tools is written to the teacher or parent. However, it is written more to a classroom teacher in a Christian school than to a homeschooling parent. Many of the pages are about classroom etiquette and rules. The information in the guide is very simple. The guide is thirteen pages in length. It includes a timed writing scale, internet links, suggestions for games and quizzes, and evaluation tips.
Teacher Tools would be a great guide for the classroom teacher. I do not think it a necessary addition to home education. The links and suggestions are convenient, but the timed writing scale is already included in Keyboarding for the Christian School, Elementary Version. A quick internet search would yield more information and links than is provided in this guide.
