Writing on a Screen
Aligned to W.1.6 — Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts.
What this lesson teaches
We can write with a keyboard or a tablet, not just a pencil. A grown-up can help us type and share it.
Worked examples
Example 1
We type "My dog is fun" on a tablet. Then we add a photo of the dog to share our writing.
Example 2
We type 'My plant grew two inches' and add a photo we took of the plant.
Example 3
On a screen you can move a sentence without rewriting the whole page. That makes fixing the order easy.
Practice questions
- Type one short sentence with help.
- Find the space bar between words.
- Add a picture to go with your words.

Escribir en la Pantalla
Podemos escribir con un teclado o una tableta, no solo con lápiz. Un adulto puede ayudarnos a escribir y compartirlo.
Ejemplo 1: Escribimos "Mi perro es divertido" en una tableta. Luego agregamos una foto del perro para compartir.
Ejemplo 2: Escribimos 'Mi planta creció dos pulgadas' y agregamos una foto que tomamos de la planta.
Ejemplo 3: En una pantalla puedes mover una oración sin volver a escribir toda la página. Eso hace fácil arreglar el orden.
