Welcome to Mouserobics!

Click the underlined two below. Here is how

  1. Rest heel of your hand on the table in front of the mouse.
  2. Hold the mouse between thumb and ring and little fingers.
  3. Use thumb and fingers to move the tip of the arrow onto the underlined two.

    2

  4. When the arrow becomes a pointing finger,
    hold the mouse still    .
  5. Lightly click the mouse button with your index finger.

    • If your mouse has more than one button, click the left Left mouse button mouse button.
    • If the next page doesn't appear after you click, you aren't holding the mouse still when clicking.
      The lighter you click the better clicking works.
      Keep trying.
