I'm taking a highschool Word Processing class right now (that's what they call typing these days) and we just finished learning the letters and are now working on speed and accuracy. Those "not even words" words are usually the letters in the home row.
Like asdfjkl; is the home row keys from left to right, and ;lkjhfdsa is the home row keys right to left. They usually aren't random unless you are specifically working on finding them on the keyboard early on in the lesson.
The sentences don't make a lot of sence, because they have to be composed of only the letters you have learned so far. Mine got a lot better as we went. Now we are learning how to type memos, emails, letters, and tables. Are you going to go into that, or is it just learning the keys?
Oh, and you might want to learn touch type, because some of the classes at my school learn the letters and then have to use keyboard covers so they CAN'T look at the keys; they have to know them. They might spring that on you unexpectedly.
