Welcome to the world's greatest web page! This web page has all of the things I did in computer class and much much more! I hope you will enjoy looking at all of the great things here.

Thanks-Liam



We typed a document that gave instructions on how to use bullets and numbering, paragraphs and how to insert and format a graphic or picture. We also learned how to use line spacing, and superscripts and subscripts in formulas. I liked bullets and numbering the most. [|Liam67WPS.doc]

We used the search engine //Google// to research the answers to four questions. Then we formatted the answers into a //MS Word// document. The formatting was a review of the information that we learned in the last project. There were a lot of interesting facts in this document. I liked the one about the golf clubs the most. [|Liam67IntQues.doc] Word Processing and Editing with Track Changes __**  We used the Track Changes feature in //MS Word// to edit a word document about a speech given by Abraham Lincoln. This was a short lesson, but will be very useful when we start peer editing our non-fiction and fiction writing. I can’t wait.

We used //MS Publisher// to make a collage, using pictures of our family, friends and ourselves. We learned how to insert and format pictures. We also learned how to crop and order our photos and some aspects of balance and design. This was a fun project. I liked my background the most but my pictures were cool too.

We explored on the cool program //Google Earth//. //Google Earth// is an online mapping program that is much more. //Google Earth// allows you to find anything; airports, parks, government buildings, The Eiffel Tower and much more, using satellite pictures. Mr. Williams showed us his house in Florida and Capital Paradise and ISB in Beijing. Later, I found my house in Beijing, my dad’s old school, my house in Scotland, My grandma’s house in England and even a baseball park in New York! This was really fun. //Google Earth// also has a very cool flight simulator. Out of all of the projects in computer class, this one was the best! [|Liam67GoogleEarth.pdf]

We took the information from Early Man and Early Civilizations and put it on a Timeline using //Timeliner// to better understand the lives of early people and how they lived. We also improved our skills on how to use //Timeliner// properly. I liked this project a lot. I also learned a lot about early man from this project. [|Liam67ancientmanTL.JPG] **__ Early Man Graphic with //Inspiration// __** We used the program //Inspiration// to make a table about the stages of early man. This project improved my knowledge of the program. This project was great fun. [|Liam67EarlyManIns.jpg] **__ Early Civilizations Timeline with //Timeliner// __** We used the program //Timeliner// to make a timeline of early civilizations and when they ruled. This project was the same as the timeline of early man. Even so, I liked this project.

**__ Early Civilizations with //Inspiration// __** We used the program //Inspiration// to make a table of information about early civilizations. This project was the same as the one about early man. It gets a little bit boring after a while!

  We used a //Microsoft Excel// spreadsheet to make a data table and a graph about M&Ms. We counted the number of peanut and plain M&Ms and used these numbers to make a graph. I made a row graph and formatted it so it would look really cool. We even got to eat the M&Ms after. They tasted awesome!

We looked at a spreadsheet as a database. Each of the cells was a piece of information about the students in the Middle School. We saw how a database can be sorted, based on the information. We updated our own personal information.   **There is no example because this is confidential information.**

We morphed and altered our school pictures using //Photoshop//. At the end looked really weird or funny. Some of the pictures even looked like creatures from another planet. I really enjoyed this project.
