The default course - Typing Jungle

The default course for every class and account is Typing Jungle. The default course is the activity that will be automatically assigned to all classes in your account. If you prefer to use a different course as the default in your account, remember to make the change before you upload your classes. To view or update your default course, go to Courses Settings.

In Typing Jungle, the first lessons instruct students to practice typing the J and F keys. These two keys are the foundation of touch typing (notice your keyboard has bumps on those letters). Each subsequent lesson introduces students to new letters, the Shift key, numbers, symbols, and motivates students to increase typing accuracy and speed. With over 650 in-house designed lessons, Typing Jungle is a comprehensive resource for K-12 students and the best way to teach touch typing. It provides an extensive curriculum that includes varied typing experiences, games, and videos, as well as multiple motivational tools.
