Click on the links below to navigate to Dance Mat Typing. Take a screenshot as evidence of your progress. Watch and listen to the instructions carefully. Make sure you sit up tall, place your feet flat on the floor, keep your elbows relaxed by your side, center your keyboard to your body, and place your hands on the home row keys. Concentrate as you begin to practice typing. Remember one finger strikes a key at a time and always returns back to home row.
