Kodable Typing grows with students from kindergarten through fifth grade. Every grade gets its own age-appropriate islands, and content never repeats, so students come back each year to new adventures with the Fuzzes and the Floofs.
Every letter key in alphabetical order plus the space bar, finishing with two-letter words.
The full keyboard by finger position, starting at the home row, then simple sentences with basic punctuation.
Home row outward, then capital letters, numbers, and symbols on the way to full sentences and short paragraphs.
Punctuation, numbers, and symbols practice while building speed with sentences and paragraphs.
Numbers, symbols, and punctuation, then sentences and paragraphs at three difficulty levels.
Speed and accuracy with paragraphs, then real-world typing: to-do lists, emails, math problems, and more.
Each island is self-guided and gives students plenty of practice to master a concept before moving to the next one.
Four quick things that make the week smoother, straight from the Kodable team.

Kodable Typing has been vitally important as our 3rd and 4th graders prep for state exams. They're eager to use the home row and already more confident at the keyboard.
No. Outside of Free Typing Week, Kodable Typing requires a 7-day trial that teachers apply for. During the event, every teacher account has full access automatically — nothing to request or approve.

Kodable Typing runs in any modern web browser on Chromebooks, laptops, and desktops. It also works on iPads with an attached keyboard. Students need a physical keyboard to practice.
No lesson planning required. Kodable Typing automatically assigns the right islands based on your class grade level, and every lesson is self-guided. Just make sure each class has the correct grade level set before you start.
