Name of handout Description of master
Prepare these masters before using KeyWords on NEOs:
Posture and Wrist Placement This master shows a drawing of a
student seated properly with good wrist
and hand position. Use it to create an
overhead transparency or a reference
handout for students.
Key Strike This master shows close-up sketches of
correct finger strike positions. Use it to
create an overhead transparency or a
student handout.
Finger Zones This master illustrates the keyboard
divided into zones. A graphic shows the
fingers that correspond to the zones on
the keyboard on each hand.
Home Row Keys This master shows Home Row positions
for the left and right hands. Use this
master as a handout or a poster.
Use these masters while working with KeyWords on NEOs:
Finger Placement for Lesson 1: Start
Here!
This master illustrates the right and left
hands with fingers labeled, and shows
those fingers in their home row
positions. It also illustrates the finger
reach to the enter key and the use of the
thumb to strike the space bar. Use it to
create handouts or posters.
Finger Placement for Lessons 2 through
16
These masters illustrate finger
placement and reaches useful for
student reference as they learn each
level. Use the masters to create a
handout for each lesson.
Progress Report Use this master to create hardcopy
reports for students to fill in so they can
track their progress or hand in progress
reports. This is the same information
kept by the NEO in the students’
records.
