Week 3

Two one hour class periods

Lesson 4

Instructional Objectives

Students will add pictures from CD, floppy drive, and the Internet.

Advanced Preparation/Prerequisite Knowledge

The teacher will need to have looked up and copied pictures from the Internet or other source to floppy disk and CD.

If you have Windows 95 you will not be able to copy internet pictures without first putting them in a word or word pad document. It is for this reason that I have taught the children both how to access Internet pictures directly and how to transfer information from a floppy or CD.
