Virtual Keyboard WASHOUT

My county purchased 100 numonics boards to put in Title 1 classrooms, for which I am eternally grateful.  Anyone who has ever gotten one of those boards knows that the virtual keyboard is a pain in the behind to get to work.  Very often, the teacher ends up walking back and forth from the cart to the board to do their bidding.

NO LONGER is that necessary MY FRIENDS!!!

If you go to START..
and CONTROL PANEL..
Make sure you are in CATEGORY VIEW (not classic view)
Click on ACCESSIBILITY OPTIONS
On the left hand menu you will see ON SCREEN KEYBOARD - click on it

And WALLAH!!! THERE IS YOUR VIRTUAL KEYBOARD THAT WORKS!!!

 

Also, if you get a wild hair up the hiney and click on MAGNIFIER, it makes the whole screen bigger!  It is the ZOOM without the board!
