What this lesson teaches
You can use a computer or tablet to type, save, and share your writing. Tools like the space bar and spell-check help you type neatly.
Worked examples
Example 1

Example 2
You type a report, then use a search to check one fact before you publish it.
Example 3
Anything you can type, someone else can read. Assume a school document will be seen by an adult, because it will be.
Practice questions

- Use a tool to make a title stand out.
