101 Part A
Our students will need to work with computerised typing tutor program to give them the motor physical skills and accuracy in keyboarding. Students will need to send a copy of their Typing Test Results, which shows that they can type more than 35 wpm with 98% accuracy.
This typing test can be taken from any “learn to type” computer program, many of which can be downloaded from the internet or purchased cheaply from a computer shop (eg. Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing).
One example of a downloadable typing tutor is found at: http://learn2type.com
101 Part B
Students will still need to complete a word processed document which includes examples of:
* Changing font and size.
* Bolding.
* Underlining.
* Indenting.
* Inserting a picture from Paint, Clip Art, or the Internet.
* Using 2 Columns.
* Insertion of data within a table that has formatted borders, altered cell sizes and shading.
* Creating and inserting a graph from data contained within the table.
If unsure of how to do any of these tasks, use the built in tutorials and help screens within the “help” section of your word processor.
If you do not have Microsoft Office you may loan from our School library a copy of Open Office 6 which is a fantastic Office Suit program that is in many ways better that MS Office as it includes many extras (eg. A Vector based drawing package). Open Office 6 may be installed on your computer and is free for educational use.
Tigers are an endangered species. They live in Asia in a variety of habitats: from the tropical evergreen and deciduous forests of southern Asia to the coniferous, scrub oak, and birch woodlands of Siberia. Researchers think that there are between 5,000 and 7,500 wild tigers living in the world today.
 
Tiger Distribution
Today only about 5,000–7,000 wild tigers live across Asia. The past and present ranges of the remaining five tiger subspecies are illustrated. The northernmost living tiger, the Amur or Siberian tiger, lives primarily in southeastern Russia. The South China tiger occurs only in southern China. The range of the Indochinese tiger extends across most of Southeast Asia. The Bengal tiger is found primarily in India, while the Sumatran tiger is restricted to the Indonesian island of Sumatra. The Bali, Caspian, and Javan tigers have become extinct in the past 70 years.
Save the Tiger Fund
Since its launch in 1995, the Save The Tiger Fund has supported 271 projects in 13 out of the 14 tiger range countries with more than $13.6 million through a partnership between ExxonMobil Foundation, the Critical Ecosystem Partnership Fund, and the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (Table 1). The general public has also played an important role. Nearly $2 million has been contributed by thousands of individuals, from school children to business professionals. These contributions from our partners and supporters are making a real difference for tigers from the snowy forests of the Russian Far East to the steamy jungles of Sumatra.
