About this level

The last two resting keys belong to your smallest fingers. A is the left pinky and the semicolon is the right pinky. Once you own these, all eight fingers have a home of their own.

How this level is scored

Every lesson awards up to three stars. One star is for finishing, two for finishing accurately, and three for accuracy at the level's pace — speed on its own never earns a star. Lessons in this level also wait for the correct key: a wrong press does not move the cursor on, so a child cannot practise the wrong finger movement. Words per minute is recorded but never shown to the child — it appears only on the parent and progress pages.

Which finger types each new key

  • Press A with your left pinky.
  • Press ; with your right pinky.
