87. A Computer is like a Filing Cabinet
A Filing cabinet is place for storing, well, files--papers we want to keep and maybe work on sometimes.

88. A Computer is like a Filing Cabinet
Files are organized into folders and put in drawers so we can find them.

89. A Computer is like a Filing Cabinet
When we want to work on a file, we take it out of its folder...

90. A Computer is like a Filing Cabinet
...and put it on our desk.

91. A Computer is like a Filing Cabinet
When we’re done we have to put it back where we’ll find it again.

92. A Computer is like a Filing Cabinet
There! now our document is safe!

93. A Computer is like a Filing Cabinet
Because a computer operates like a file cabinet, we know that any time we need to do something with a file, we go to the FILE menu.

94. A Computer is like a Filing Cabinet
We go to our filing cabinet
(the FILE menu) when
we want to:
Create a New File
Get a File out (open it)
Put a File away (save it)

95. Create a New Document
One kind of file is a document. A document is a file that contains your writing. Other types of files include pictures and music.
Creating a new document is easy. I’ll show you how.

96. Create a New Document First, click on the file menu
Then, click on “New Blank Document” (many programs will just call it “New”)

105. Saving a File
Saving a document is like putting a copy of a file back into our file cabinet for safe keeping. We save when:
We want to protect any changes we’ve made
We want to put our file away

106. Saving a File
Saving a file is pretty easy. The hard part is remembering where you saved it! At school you can save to your own private folder where your files are safe and you can always find them. I’ll show you how.

107. Saving a File
First, click on “File”
Then, click on “Save”

108. Saving a File
A box will pop up. In this box you can give your file a name. You can also tell the computer where to put your file. Think of it as if you were putting a file in the right drawer in your filing cabinet.

109. Saving a File
To put your file in your private folder, click on the icon labeled “Goliath HD”. On some computers you may need to click “Desktop” first.

110. Saving a File Then click through these folders to get to yours:
Students
2014 (or 2013, or 2015, or...)
