Students used Microsoft Word to create various language arts projects including poetry, a character journal, and a menu for a restaurant. Some of the projects included an autobiographical poem about a character named Brandon, a color poem about the color pink, and cinquains about the seasons. A character journal was also created covering the diary entries of a Captain Edward Burton about his experiences in war. Finally, a menu was designed for a fictional restaurant called New York Bread & Co. offering items like juices, sodas, coffees, breads, bagels, desserts, sandwiches, and appetizers.
