1. CORRECT THE ORDER!
A few letters will appear on the right side of the screen. You must place the letters

When one letter is placed in order on the left side of the screen, one of the letters
will disappear from the right side of the screen. If the HINT key is pressed, one
letter is placed in the correct order. There are a total of two hints in this activity.
2. MYSTERY LETTER
A few characters will be shown on the screen in alphabetical order. You must fill
in the appropriate letter of the alphabet that should appear at the beginning of the

3. ZAP-A-LETTER
Several letters will be shown on the screen. One letter is in a different case than
the others. Select the different letter using the keyboard or by pressing the left or
the right arrow/cursor keys. Press the ENTER key to confirm your answer. If you

Two or three pairs of letters will be shown on the screen and then covered with
cards. Use the left/right arrow and ENTER keys to turn over the cards and match
the upper and lower case letters. If two of the letters match, the “correct” melody
