1. Review e-mail briefly
   1. Ask how the homework was: What problems did people encounter? What questions do they have?
   2. Have everyone open Internet Explorer.
   3. Log into e-mail accounts.
   4. Check messages.
   5. Send an e-mail to your neighbor telling them something you’d like to find more information about: people, places, travel, events, etc.
2. Open second Internet window to look up Key West.
   1. Set-up: Grandma just moved there, want to find out what it’s like. Find out it’s a happening vacation spot. Want to visit.
   2. Yahoo! Search for “Key West”
   3. Look at “Web Sites.” Explain difference between “Web Categories” & “Web Sites.”
   4. Choose “Discover Key West” (http://key-west.com/) or “Florida Keys & Key West” (http://fla-keys.com/visitorindex.htm)
   5. Practice clicking around.
   6. How do we go back to Yahoo Search Results?
   7. Now look at Yahoo Travel Guide: Check out best time of the year to go… Check weather… “Records and Averages.”
   8. Book Your Trip! Note: You need a credit card to book a flight on-line!

4. Open time for questions and self-study.
