Microsoft Word and Curious George

Microsoft Word is a word processor commonly used in schools by both teachers and students. Teachers can use word processor to create many documents for the classroom such as lesson plans, worksheets, and they can develop tests as well. One of the greatest benefits of using MS word is the ability to improve may students' writing across the curriculum. Some students that have learning disabilities may find it hard and spend much energy trying to manipulate a pen or pencil to create words. Word processor can eliminate barrier to writing and allow the student to focus more on the content of the paper. MS word can also be used to create solid, professional images by using clip art and bold, stylish letters. The Curious George document I created below depicts the many tools one can use on MS word and do so with their students while learning. The integration of technology in the classroom, such as MS word, increases student learning and it also motivates them and increases their involvement.
