The best one for starting to touch type, typing without peeking. It also works
to drape a bandana over kids' hands as they type so they have to "feel" they
are in the right place. Switching keyboards from home to school can be tricky.
Laptops don't have the "slope" that the desktops do.

A one-minute typing test. This scores quite harshly for errors so students
should only go as quickly as they can without making more than 2-3 errors in a
minute.
