      • Now try "⌘+Shift+4" - what did THAT do?
      • Try "Command + F" - what did it do? 
      • What does  "⌘ + P" do?
  • MENUS
    • Menus are at the TOP of the SCREEN and CHANGE depending on which program has FOCUS
    • They usually say things like "File" and "Edit" and "View"
    • If you need to press multiple menu items they will have "|" [bar] signs between them like this: "EDIT | FIND"
