Emailing and Mousing

Email skills we practised this week:

• signing IN to your email account;
• checking for new emails in your INBOX;
• adding a New Contact from those that you can see in an email;
• replying to an email.

Mousing Revision: the Clicky mouse Game 

Do you want to practise again? We found the link on the CNLC Talks wiki Learning on the WEB Page:  the game is at Webwise: Computer Basics - Clicky Mouse Game. It's quite hard isn't it?

What were the rules, again?

Green ball shape: single click

Yellow cube shape: double click

Red triangular shape: draw circle around it
