We've licensed the Almena Keyboard Technique for all of our schools and
go into keyboarding in a very comprehensive manner starting in Grade 4.
I know that other districts in Ontario have started as early as Grade 3.
After being exposed to the technique and having it monitored by the
teacher, it is not uncommon to have students keying at 20 wpm after two
weeks.
