Here's the order:

SPEED
LINES
PARAGRAPH (starts at Lesson 9)
REPORT

Starting with lesson 9, you'll need to also choose paragraph. You'll have to record that speed each day now as well as the line speeds you're already recording.

When you get through lesson 16, this is the one you'll print if you make 20 AWPM. Make sure your name is on it before printing.
Mavis
Go to MB (mavis beacon) icon on desktop.

Ask for the lesson sheet 1st.

1st prove 20 AWPM within 90% errors on lessons

Now ask for the speed sheet.

Next prove 20 AWPM within 90% errors on speed--this is how you get a certificate to hang up,

If your speed certificate is hanging, ask for a sheet called "Drills are first".
