Mr. Chambers, a teacher at Frederic Burk Elementary School, instructs fourth-grade students in proper keyboard technique as they practice the “home row” keys. A chart behind him displays the letters “asdf ; jkl;” and the words “Home row,” reinforcing the lesson. The students sit at individual desks using Smith-Corona electric typewriters, reflecting the growing emphasis on keyboarding skills in elementary education during the mid-20th century.
