Learning the Keyboard

Sitting Position Sit with back supported, feet flat on floor.

Position of Hands Fingers should be gently curved over the keyboard, thumbs above the Spacebar. Ensure that wrists are not raised; elbows should be comfortably alongside your body, not jutting out like wings.

Use Correct Fingering Even if you are not a fast typist, try and use the correct fingers on the keyboard. The following diagram shows the "home keys" boxed, where your fingers should rest. Place the left hand with your little finger on the letter A then place your other fingers on SDF. Similarly for the right hand, place your little finger on the ; key then place your other fingers on LKJ.

As you learn new keys your fingers will move as follows:

• The first left finger moves across to the letter G.

• The first right finger moves across to the letter H.

• Fingers are moved up and down the keyboard as shown in the hands illustration.

• The Enter key is pressed with the ; finger when you want a definite new line.

(When you type text across the page the text is automatically returned to the left margin.)

• The Spacebar is used with your right thumb.
