Publisher's description
From Individual Software :For over 20 years, Typing Instructor has helped individuals improve their typing skills. Now, Typing Instructor for Kids 4 delivers the same proven typing methods for children in an entertaining and educational environment. Typing lessons consist of structured touch-typing content, progressive skill-building methods, unique drills and interactive exercises, age-appropriate content, graphic guide hands, standard and split keyboards, and multiple skill levels. These lessons take place as students explore the five exciting regions of Typer Island on their way to the castle. In each region, they learn new keys, experience exciting typing challenges, and play challenging multi-level games. From the Old West region, where they build basic typing speed and accuracy learning the home row keys, to the Under Sea region, where they master the more challenging keys and escape danger playing in the murky depths of Typer Shark Abyss, Typer Island is an exciting place to learn to type. Once kids reach the Castle, they can visit the Lost City where they can play the first ever adventure typing game, Treasure Quest.
