During one of my classes today we were in-between projects and there were a few students out so I didn’t want to start up anything new. I needed something fast and I wanted something fun for the kids, yet educational – not just a time killer. I remembered Typershark and had each of my students do a search for it and locate the site: www.popcapgames.com. I then instructed them how to download the free trial version which takes less than 5 minutes and they were off.

The free download gives you 60 minutes of trial time and then it costs $6.95 to purchase the full version.

One thing I can’t figure out is why did they create the letters that you are supposed to type with all caps?  This doesn’t really help the user with the shift key.
