I am SO excited you have decided to be a part of Business Class this year! Regardless if you have your own business someday or you are employed by someone else, proper social skills are a must to be successful. In this course, we focus on learning good social skills as we learn about the types and purpose of businesses. Microsoft Office software (Word, Power Point, Publisher, & Excel for 8th grade) will be learned through hands on projects throughout the semester.
Keyboarding is part of this 6th grade curriculum.
This Business Elective gives students the stepping stones to prepare them for Microsoft Office Certification in High School. MS Office certification is an invaluable asset on college applications and resumes!
All Grades will learn Xello software as well as Social Skills but read on to see more specifically, what each individual grade will be learning!
