The Beginning of Microsoft Word

Good Morning and Happy Monday!  Last week we FINALLY begin working with Microsoft Office through a series of guided activities.  I know, I know - not always the most fun activity since it doesn't offer a lot of creative opportunities (those are coming) but definitely an important way for you to develop the essential skills necessary to be a proficient user of Microsoft Word.

Today I would like to make sure we have those assignments posted.  As a reminder you are going to post these assignments in two locations.  On your blog you will have to submit them as images so you will need to take a screenshot of your project.  Please take a screenshot of the main page of the document created so that as you discuss what you were working on, your audience will be able to see some examples.  On your blog, you are responsible for responding to the following:

  1. What was the purpose of the assignment (what did you set out to do?)
  2. What new tools did you learn or what tools were you able to practice from completing this assignment (you might want/need to look at the assignment handout to pick these things out)
  3. How will you be able to use these tools to help you create better work in High School?
In addition to posting on your blog you must also post these assignments in Schoology.  In Schoology you should post your final version as a Microsoft Word document so I am able to see each of the steps you took to complete the assignment.  Again, please simply go to Schoology and upload your original Microsoft Word document.  To date, you have two MS Word assignments you should be posting - Creating a Cover Page & Creating the Newsletter.

Thank you!
Mr. Rubin
