written language.

Proper Keyboarding Technique

• Use two hands to type. • Your right hand goes on the right side of the keyboard, and your left

hand goes on the left side. • Put your right hand on J K L and ; and your left hand on F D S and A.

This is the Home Row. • The bumps on the J and F keys should be under your index fingers. • Curve your fingers. • Keep your wrists straight, not bent down. • Sit up straight! • Put your feet flat on the floor. • Look straight ahead at the screen. • When you type, hit each key with a quick, strong tap. • Keep your fingers close to the keyboard.

Have fun!
