Description
If you’re looking for a way to help your students learn the layout of the keyboard, these Simple Keyboarding and Handwriting Task Practice pages are a great option! Now this includes UPPERCASE and LOWERCASE keyboard layouts. There are two versions: find and color the key AND find and trace the letter. Either way, your students will get valuable practice in identifying the keys on the keyboard and learn how to form letters correctly.
There are two 52 page PDFs that will be available electronically immediately following payment. One is uppercase keyboards and one is lowercase keyboards.
How to Complete the Simple Keyboarding and Handwriting Task Practice Pages
There are two versions:
Find and Color the Letters – find and color the keyboard keys according to the code. There are single letters, sight words, name writing and create your own.
Find and Trace the Letters – find and trace the letters according to the color code.
The sight words are color-coded so there will not be overlap but some letters may have to be colored in twice. For example, if ARE and WHERE are to be colored blue, then the student will use a blue crayon to color the letters W, H, A, R, and E.

For each variety (FIND AND COLOR or FIND AND TRACE) it includes:
- 6 practice pages that include the alphabet and numbers
- 15 practice pages that are sight words and simple nouns that are color-coded correctly
- write your name and find letters on the keyboard page
