Keyboard Town PALS “Learn to Type.” Choose ENGLISH, choose SPANISH or choose FRENCH version. Charming puppets teaching kids keyboarding using music and humor. (Win/Mac compatible) by Keyboard Town PALS, LLC

Description

Keyboard Town PALS is the only computer keyboarding instruction on the market that teaches using association. This accelerates the learning process to one hour and does not rely on endless exercises. The software improves creative writing skills, builds self esteem and self confidence, enables students to produce quality work more easily and provides a way to express thoughts. Keyboard Town PALS is the “missing link” between the child's intellectual capabilities and the technological world around him or her. With proper technique, children will spend time expressing ideas rather than searching for correct keys to press. Understanding the keyboard liberates creative expression, offering every child a greater possibility of success in school and life.

Product Features

• Groundbreaking educational software for kids 7 yrs. old and up. Co-produced by past crew members from the Emmy-Award Winning Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood. Successful with children with all kinds of learning aptitudes.
• The software employs the “Purposeful Associative Learning System (PALS)”. We use puppets, music, humor and association to teach the location of 30 letters and symbols in an hour, in a manner that is fun and relaxed for children.
• The tutorial consists of two 1/2 hour lessons. These lessons can be divided into 8 mini lessons of approximately 6-7 minutes each. Every mini lesson can be viewed more than once & teaches each finger seperately to helps kids learn differences better.
• The backspace and delete buttons have been de-activated so that the child is not concerned about his mistakes or correcting them. The child is typing real words after only two minutes and is self-motivated to learn more.
