Level 136 Practice - 8 letter blocks: Q P
Level description:
Typing 8 letter blocks. Typing letter blocks, also known as practicing touch-typing by focusing on specific letter combinations or key clusters.
When you're comfortable with typing letter blocks, you're less likely to make mistakes or typos when typing words that contain these combinations. This reduces the need for constant backspacing and correcting errors.
5 Touch typing tips to consider:
- Hand Maintenance : Regularly engage in hand and wrist exercises, stretches, and self-massage to prevent strain and maintain flexibility.
- Light Touch : Type with a light touch to reduce strain on your fingers and wrists.
- Noise Reduction : Position your keyboard and mouse in a way that minimizes unnecessary strain due to awkward hand positions.
- Index Finger Reach : Your index fingers will frequently transition between the home row and the top and bottom rows.
- Finger Assignments : Each finger is responsible for certain keys. Use the appropriate finger to press the key without looking at the keyboard. Your index fingers are responsible for the keys "F" and "J," which often have tactile markers on them to help you find the home row without looking.
Summary:
Practicing good posture while touch typing is an investment in your long-term comfort and health. These tips will help you create a comfortable and efficient workspace.
