About the Home Row Launchpad unit
The home row is where every typing journey starts. Fingers rest on A S D F and J K L ; and the little bumps on F and J let kids find home without looking. Lessons in this unit add two keys at a time, so small hands can build muscle memory before reaching anywhere else.
How to reach the new keys
- F is a home key. Your left pointer finger rests on it all the time.
- J is a home key. Your right pointer finger rests on it all the time.
