Lesson 4
caps lock and enter button
Objective: To apply the caps lock button to capitalize the first letter in your name. To apply the caps lock and enter buttons to create a document of both lowercase and uppercase letters in the alphabet. To locate and use letters on the keyboard to complete keyboard games. 1. Review where the caps lock, backspace, and enter buttons are and what they do. 2. Log in to real computers. 3. Open up Microsoft Office Word by double-clicking. First, students will be ask to type their name using the caps lock for the first letter of their name and than press enter. In this lesson the students will be doing the following task; make a capital A, make a lowercase a, press enter, make a capital B, make a lowercase b, press enter, make a capital C, make a lowercase c, press enter, and they will continue this through the whole alphabet. This gives the students a chance to figure out where all the letters are on the keyboard. These Kindergartners are learning their alphabet, and then I have them working on a keyboard where the letters are all out of order from the alphabet! 4. When they have completed there task, they have to show me. I can assess if they were able to complete it or not. Everyone finishes at different times, but when the first person finishes I have everyone pause what they are doing and I show them what they will do after I check their work. I will show them where the two keyboarding
games are that they can play and demonstrate how to play them. They are both on ABCya, "Keyboard Zoo" and "Type Rocket Jr.".
