Words Per Minute

Hello, Tech-sperts!

You've been working hard to develop your typing skills, great job!

Read below to learn how to measure your typing speed. Your words per minute (WPM) is calculated by how many words you can type in one minute. Remember to keep your hands in position!

Directions:
Find the "Text to Type" pull down menu and choose "Random Easy-to-type Sight Words." The time begins as soon as you start typing.

Record your words per minute (wpm) and your accuracy rate (%) in your Project Section of your agenda. Keep practicing to see if you can improve your WPM!
