Here are links to three which are game oriented. That ought to draw a reluctant 6th
grader in, don't you think?
Dance Mat Typing - http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/typing/
Free Typing Game - http://freetypinggame.net/
Bubbles Typing Game - http://www.typingmaster.com/individuals/bubbles.asp
Hope that helps...
