The likely reason then your onscreen keyboard won't appear is your iPad is connected to the Bluetooth Keyboard. Many Bluetooth keyboards (not all) have a key above the number 4 with a keyboard icon. If your keyboard has one, tap it and the onscreen keyboard will appear. Mine does and it's a necessary feature for a Bluetooth keyboard as far as I'm concerned. If your keyboard doesn't have such a key, go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn off Bluetooth or if you really don't want to use the Bluetooth Keyboard, tap the little circle with an i it and forget the keyboard. You can also pull down from the top right hand corner of your iPad to bring up control center and tap the Bluetooth icon to temporarily turn Bluetooth off (probably a better method for you).

Do you have a Bluetooth keyboard connected to your iPad?
If you don't, go to Settings > General > Keyboard and see if you have a keyboard selected.
Yes and I am not happy with it: has to be charged every or every other day. It is a 360X. I have 3 Favormates and they only need to charge once a week or two weeks.
