SAVING FILES
When saving files in class always remember two things:
1. Give the file a good name
2. Tell the computer where to save the file
Make sure to keep your files organized. I recommend making a folder for each project and saving you files there.
TAKING NOTES
Good note taking is a skill you will use throughout high school and college. Look at the examples on the Course Docs.
WRITING FRAME
The writing frame can be used to create well composed written works. It gives you a structure that can be applied to school papers or standardized tests. Look at the example under the Course Docs.
