B”H TEACHER’S GUIDE TEACHER’S GUIDE an introduction to basic keyboarding concepts for the very young child

“Little Hands Can Type” KEYBOARD TOWN PALS introduces “Little Hands Can Type” Software. “Little Hands Can Type” The “Little Hands Can Type” program is an off-shoot of the hour long keyboarding instructional video, “Learn To Type” program. The “Learn To Type” CD-ROM teaches children, ages 7 & up, the location of the 30 letters and symbols on the Qwerty keyboard. Teachers and parents requested KTP to develop a primer for the “Learn To Type” keyboarding instruction program so that children younger than 7 could begin learning good habits that would last a life time. “Little Hands Can Type” To accommodate this request, KTP designed the “Little Hands Can Type” readiness program for five and six year olds who knew their letter configurations and had developed a level of fine motor skills. “Little Hands Can Type” The “Little Hands Can Type” goal is to familiarize young children with the basic concepts on the keyboard and understand the relationship of letters to keys and keys to fingers. TEACHER’S GUIDE

The program begins by focusing on each finger of the hand as a separate entity The program begins by focusing on each finger of the hand as a separate entity.

TEACHER’S GUIDE
