Kelly Driscoll: I learned how to correctly set up a buisness letter, the diffrence between diffrent file types and how to make an envolope to go along with a letter.

Kelsey Emery What I learned: In pages 1 through 43 of the textbook I learned a lot about different types of documents to create, such a business letter, but it went more in depth on what we had discussed in our last class. Adjusting paragraph and line spacing, the book tells you about different techniques you can use, like how to select the whole document or just a section of text. I have always seen the button on how to create an envelope but I’ve never learned how to use it, but the book gives you step by step on how to create the envelope to go with a business document. I have always wanted to learn how to turn the paper to a horizontal piece, also known as the “landscape orientation.” The book also goes into detail with paragraph formatting, which allows you to have a header that is surrounded by a border; in which you can add color to. I was surprised at how much I already knew, just by using word for typing things in school, in this first section of the book. Things like how to change font styles, choosing an existing file, and saving the changes you’ve made, adding borders, inserting photos, and changing their shape and size, and some details with spacing documents.

 * I learned why some documents have a .docx file name and some don't. File extensions!
 * I also learned how add shading and a border to a specific part of a document and not just the whole document

Thomas Canning: I learned the general format of a business letter; I didn’t know the specific spacing. Contextual spelling error; never knew what this blue line meant. Lastly, I never really looked at all the things that you could create using word.
