I am going to be teaching 4 day summer word processing workshops 
(2 hours a day) to two groups of children in grades 4-6 and 7-9, 
respectively.  The intent of the course is to give the kids first
time experience with a computer and the basics of a word processor (for
the younger group) and more advanced knowledge of a WP (for the older
group). 

I have several activities planned to make their experience seem less like
work.  I am looking for suggestions for other activities.  Please
e-mail any ideas on the subject.

Thanks in advance
