The great thing about computers is that they can do a lot of things much faster than a human. Say you’re looking for a specific word on a web page. Instead of scanning it yourself, all you need to do is press Ctrl+F and type the word you’re looking for. There are mountains of shortcut like this, from pressing Ctrl+S to instantly save the file you’re working on, Ctrl+P to print it out, or Ctrl+T to open a new tab in your web browser. It may seem like more trouble than its worth at first, but after you use a shortcut one or two times, you’ll wonder why you ever did anything with the mouse. Check out our list of six shortcuts everyone should know, as well as our shortcut of the day series for even more tricks.

For MJ, maybe help him locate pictures of his country, Springfield, a chef, and a person eating. He has been practicing asking and answering personal questions and Do you like.
For example: You and he can find an image of Springfield. Negotiate this sentence with him: I live in Springfield. He should get it after a few prompts. He has made tremendous progress. He should be able to do this with the other images too. I am from Somalia. My name is Mohamed. I like to cook. I like to eat. I have seen that MJ, AA, MA, NH, JJ, JS, and HA are at the basic skill level for computers. Adjust assignment for them as necessary. *Please sign-up Ss for USA Learns, even if it is a temp. account. We have headphones for everyone now. They are in my classroom. Summer Ss requested this today in class. *Lastly, Stand Out has a practice CD and website. Ss can use this. Also, showing Ss how to use Quizlet to reinforce concepts would be good too, |
