Third Quarter

This quarter we will continue working with Excel - the Spreadsheet Program. By now, you should have completed up to page 223 of Chapter 7 (Microsoft Office 2003 Textbook). You may continue the "Grades" Exercise (Part 4 of 5) on page 224. You will find the "DEPT MEMO" in the Server under Keyboarding M (1) in a folder named Word Data Files. Please make a copy of this document and save it on your desktop or your documents in your computer.

Read the instructions carefully! In this exercise you will learn to copy part of the Excel Table you already created ("Grades") and paste it in the DEPT MEMO document. Make sure you select the "Match Destination Table Style" in the Paste Options Button (as mentioned in "d." under Paste Data). Enter your name under FROM and enter today's date under DATE.

Save this document in your respective Keyboarding Folder (4, 6 or 9) in the Server under your name (in My Documents). You will also print a copy for Mrs. Feld, but PRINT PREVIEW your document first to make sure that it looks good.

After completing Part 4 of 5 you can continue on page 230 (you may skip pages 225 - 229) and work on Part 5 of 5, after reading page 230 Cell Borders, Patterns, and Color and Conditional Formatting. End on page 232.

You also will continue working on your Skill Builder Lessons in MicroType 4. Remember: use the mask and challenge yourself! You know your weaknesses. Do you need to repeat some lessons? Do you need to use correct fingering? Do you need to type at a more consistent pace? Are you still backspacing too many times? Are you still making more than 6 mistakes in a 2 minute timing? Set a good goal for yourself and work hard at achieving it!

Thank you for all your good work and interest! I really appreciate it!
