This lesson, I learned how to open the links of all them in word, you will go to tools and click on customize then it will appear all of them in there(they wont be hidden there anymore). You can make your own tool box in word, the ones that you use usually. You go to tools and then customize, then you click on the toolbars and you choose new, then you will have your own toolbar (the one you need mostly). I learned something new that you can just click on the file sign and it is to open files from your computer. You can put any picture or drawing in your text and that can be under or on or front of your text. You will go to the up of word page and click on Text Wrapping, and then you choose which one you want. We can make the line thick or thin by using line style. It is down of the page usually. We can count words in our text by going to tools and then click on word count. It will show how many words, lines, paragraphs and etc there are. You can go to tools and then options; in there you can change the things that you have in your word page like if you want to view which things and grammar and spell check, if they should correct the mistakes or from where they should correct it and etc. You can click on styles and formatting, then if you choose one of the sizes of the heading (1 or 2 or 3), all your text will be same as each other. There will not be differences. We can Drop cap by going to format, it means that you can choose if the first letter of your text should be normal or dropped or in margin (it changes the size of it, only first letter). I try to learn more about the word, I am sure there are a lot of things that I never know. I never knew these things before because I did not looked up for them, but this time I looked around the word program and now I know them. See u later...

Today some students present their podcasts. It was not a good day at all, because my bestfriend, Iram, was absent.
Ok let's talk about computer class. Mr.Case gave us an assignment. We should explore 10 menus that we are not familiar with them and we don't know about them. I will do it at home and i hope i could finish it. But i will start it now. Ok see you..

In powerPoint, if you put a sound that the file is not there in that computer you cannot play the sound but if you put it and save it in there you can play your sound and you will not embarrass. You will choose options and click on General tab, then you will put the size of the file, you can put 5000kb, if you want to you can put more than that it depend on the file how much large or long is it. But if you already added the sound like you made it at home but you sent it by your mail then you can delete the file then insert again from sounds and movies and the file should be saved in that computer, that is the only way you can play it.

I am not finished i should look again and i will edit because i cannot do it from my hom, sorry Mr.Case.

Wednesday was a shortened period day but we couldnot go home earlier. We had the Census on that day. Most of the students took it. It was good. Rememberance day was on Friday. We missed period two, so i didnot had French. I was happy. I had a short week but it was a little boring for me. In my computer class, Mr.Case told us we have got a test on Monday. We should do a search for podcast. I dont know really what to do but i will ask Mr.Case now. So, for now i have nothing to say. Bye....

Mr. Case told us to make our own hot list. Hot list is a place that you can put any site you want to visit or the sites that you often visit. This way you can save your time and you don’t need to type the name of the site. I have like maybe twenty sites to put in there. I like when we learn something and we write our blog but when it comes to test or a presentation, I don’t know but I kind of don’t like these things. I think they are a little boring for me, or maybe it is hard so I am too lazy to do them.
I learned many things in Mr. Case's class. I am glad that I took computer actually it is fun, we play with computer somehow. We also can get a good type of a computer for our family by learning stuff about computer. We can know about the computer, which type of it is good for doing what. We should not look for a computer's price only, the model and the speed and the type of its hard drive is important too.

Also we have a test on powerpoint on monday. I pray i will get a good mark on it otherwise what i learned will be of no use. Also my teacher and my parents will get mad at me... oh i really am nervous... help me GOD!

I have a presentation about any topic we choose. We should make it by powerpoint. We should make it so interesting that anyone could see theirself.
We also learned how to put music in PowerPoint presentation. We can bring any music that we want to from anywhere but it has to be in our computer saved. We should make sure that the picture that we bring there has no other link otherwise if we click by accidentally on it, the internet page will open and of course you don’t want that. We always should write our bibliography. We can insert action button, by this we can go to any slide we want after or before the slide we are viewing. We even can go a few slides further or back if wanted to (we have the option).

There are a lot of things that can make your powerpoint look nicer. Wordart can make your text look nicer with different colors. We can bring pictures in our powerpoint. We have font, line and full color for texts. We can change the size of line. We can insert different shapes in there. Our powerpoint can have sounds with different shapes. We can add sounds and introduce our text by word or letter and also we can give them order and we can choose if we want to add time for it by custom animation. If we have a presentation about something and we dont want the audience to know about it before we talk about them, we can just bring them by clicking the mouse and by that way no one can read before us, first we will talk about it and then click the mouse. By this way our presentation even looks more better and also if someone has a question from you, your presentation will not just go on, you can stop it by not clicking the mouse.
