SPEED
TIPS
1. Sitting
at a table while using the FlashMaster greatly improves both
concentration and typing speed.
2. Touch-typing
with eight fingers and with "pinkies" positioned over the
"1" and "0" keys is the fastest way to
answer problems, especially when numerous answers have two digits and a
left digit other than "1"—normally in multiplication. But some children will find this system very difficult, and
most children should not be encouraged to use it initially.
3. Using
both index fingers is the second fastest system—especially when
numerous answers contain more than one digit (normally in multiplication
and addition). Normally, in
addition the left index finger should be used solely for the
"1" key. But
many children should start by using only one finger.
4.
Occasionally, to increase their abilities,
advanced students should do "Flashcards" activities with a
per-problem Time Limit that is less long than is currently necessary for
them to maintain their normal level of accuracy.
