Wow, sometimes I feel like I fell head over heels down a rabbit hole!  This week went by so fast I can hardly believe it.  The Elementary and Jr. High Classes class quickly got immersed in word processors and learned the difference between Microsoft WordPad and Microsoft Office's Word.  They really seemed to enjoy using the different graphic functions and how to put pictures and different types of fonts and graphics on a page as well as importing images from the Internet.

The High School students finally got their passwords settled, and now in some of the classes we started developing brochures using Microsoft Word.

Coming Next Week !

Hopefully, this weekend, I will get a chance to download Corel's PaintShop Pro X4 (latest version) into 25 of our computers.  I bought the license and if I get the download instructions from Corel, I will try to get the computers loaded for our illustrious students.  We are going to have an absolute blast with this program, because it is very similar to Adobe's Photoshop program.  Check out the video below:



Please Start Bringing flash drives(also known as"jump" drives) to class.  They aren't that expensive, and you will need one to store the files that you create on.

Looking forward to another week!!

God Bless and Peace Out!!!
