Today Shaoming is going to teach you how to use Microsoft Word for typing. He will give you some instructions to read and if you follow them, you should be able to do the following:

  • Open a word document.

  • Type a recount about your weekend. Remember to use the past tense. You may be able to use some past continuous to practise the grammar we have been learning for the last 2 weeks.

  • Save your word document on the desktop to find it easily

  • Open your email account (the TAFE one or Yahoo, hotmail, gmail,etc)

  • Write me an email

  • Attach your recount

  • Send it

If you have spare time, please look at past weeks and do any outstanding work.

For the weekend

Lina told us how she used Audacity to practise her short talk. What a great idea! For those of you interested in doing the same, here is a link to tutorials that may help you with it and other things you can do on your blogs. Check the ones with audacity and or podcasting in the name of the tutorial.
