Keyboarding Lessons & Links
NAC students begin keyboarding lessons in 2nd grade and continue to improve their touch-typing skills throughout Elementary school. Parents and guardians can help by encouraging students to use the home row and correct fingers even when they are not at school.
Touch typing only! No chickens allowed!
Remember to sit with proper body position (on bottom, feet on the floor, back straight), and use that home row! Train your fingers to FEEL for the key; don't look for the key with your eyes.
Grade 2: Dance Mat Typing
Don't skip ahead! Remember to sit with proper body position (on bottom, feet on the floor, back straight), and use that home row! Train your fingers to FEEL for the key; don't look for the key with your eyes.
There is no login required for Dance Mat Typing.
