Lesson 5-Practice Session:
This is bound to be easier than Lesson 4. At least now you know where NotePad is and how to save a file.
Let's find some different text: How about this:
There's some RED text below. Copy it into NotePad:
- Find NotePad again;
- Click on File and select New to give you a blank page.
- Select the red text on this page and press CTRL + C to copy the text.
- Then go to NotePad and press CTRL + V to paste the text into NotePad.
Then see if you can put the following presidential sayings in the correct order by when the person who said each
was President. (For example: something said by Washington would go first, followed by Adams, etc.) Highlight the
saying you think was said first, use CTRL-C to copy onto your clipboard, then CTRL-V to paste back onto the top of
the list. Repeat until you have them in sequence.

"Ask not what your country can do for you but rather
what you can do for your country!"
"Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!"
"The buck stops here!"
"I believe when a witness is under oath...,
