The Home button is on the screen surround, in the centre of one of the short sides. It has a square with rounded corners printed on it.

Hold both down together until your iPad goes off and the Apple logo appears. This reset is similar to pulling the battery which of course you can't do. |

Your response made it sound as if you didn't know what the Home button was. Pressing and holding the Power and Home buttons together forces the iPad to shutdown and restart. That might clear any software glitch that is making the iPad misbehave. |
