> Hi all,
> Today my daughter completed the year 3 computer competition. She had
prepared herself as well as she could, but found it difficult. It was more
than a challenge. Did anyone else find this? Some of the questions had some
very tricky language in them.
> She was unfamiliar with watermarks.
> Also, one of the questions mentioned the memory stick. I hadn't thought to
teach her about mine. As a year 3 student, she just saves things on the hard
drive.  She found it hard to believe that there was something called a
memory stick!
> In the end she was disappointed with herself. I explained that it was
probably the hardest comp she would do as technology is always changing and
there are always unexpected things on it.
