Double Assembly Day!

This is the last day of "Week 10". Please type "A Gift in Disquise" and "College is My Next Destination". Save and make sure the side margins are one inch and you have a footer! I will check the number of lines on your screen.

I want to see three timing tests from www.freetypinggame.net that I will put in for a grade. They will be three minute timings and you will "Print Screen" by using the F14 (function keys at the top) and then pasting them into a word document and cropping it. Remember, they will be the certificate 3 minute typing tests. You will be e-mailing them to me at the beginning of the class after I go over what I want from you.

We will be moving to PowerPoint today.

Dear Class:

This is the second day of Warmup entitled "Week 6". Remember, it will have a footer and one inch side margins. You will continue to type the handout at the front of the class which is entitled "Cinco de Mayo". If that sheet is unavailable, please "freewrite" about where your ultimate vacation would be and what you would do when you get there.

We will be starting Personal Business Letters. The first one is in the book next to the computer on page 100 that will be known as the "Smiddy" letter. The instructions on how to type it is located on page 99. Please read those instructions. It will be a personal business letter. This means that at the bottom of the letter you will put your name and address instead of the one in the book. Do not forget to format it with a 1 inch side margin and include our usual footer.

I will have a handout for the other letters.
