They can also visit Story Lagoon and practice typing one of 40 familiar stories, including fairy tales and classic literature. Students can also visit Explorer Isle at any point to play their favorite games (except for Lost City games), using only the keys that they have covered already. While capturing the Castle and exploring the Lost City are the ultimate goals of the game, students earn treasures and points all through the program, which keeps them motivated and entertained. Once they make it through all five lands, students capture the Castle, which opens the Lost City, a new addition to the program that provides two new games. Of course, the arcade-like games will be the most fun to the beginning typist! The further students advance in the program, the more games will be available to them. Accuracy and speed (WPM) are also tracked throughout, with students getting instant feedback on their performance, and earning rewards as well. The changes in scenery add a lot of variety to the lessons, but you can still rely on helpful features including visual instruction with the 3-D guide hands and keyboard. As students journey through Old West, On the Water, In the Air, Over the Edge, and Under the Sea, they'll learn new keys and complete exciting challenges (usually timed) like typing to shoot words out of the sky, racing a Viking ship by typing words as quickly as possible, and typing words printed on sharks before they eat you! The activities build upon each other so students can't move on until their skills are ready. Regardless of the plan they are following, each student learns the keyboard by taking a tour of 'Typer Island' and visiting five different lands as they journey to the Castle. There are ten different typing plans to choose from, each geared to a different age group. Typing Instructor for Kids features 160 touch-typing lessons which cover all the basic keys (letters, numbers, symbols) on either a standard or a split keyboard (except for the 10-key number pad). Please note system requirements under each item.
