Instructional Ideas

  • Copy and laminate, or place in a plastic sheet protector to give to class members for continued reference throughout the lesson and the school year 
  • Quiz scholars about their knowledge of terms with a written or oral examination 

Classroom Considerations

  • Copies are required 
  • The list of terms is separated by lesson
  • Although this resource is designed to accompany a unit, it can be used independently or with another unit covering Microsoft Word

Pros

  • This list of basic terms is extensive, and will create a level of comfortability while working in Microsoft Word 

Cons

  • Line spacing differs beginning at page three
