How to take a screen shot

Sometimes you may wonder how to take a screen shot of your screen to maybe show a friend or family member how something looks.  There are two ways to do this. The first way to do this is to open up the page (if you are on the internet) or open up the page on your desktop.  Next hold the control “ctrl” and print screen “prt sc” keys on your key board.  Next open Microsoft paint or a simple word document and press “ctrl” and the letter “V” on the key board to paste it or you can just right and press paste.  The next way to capture the screen is to use the snipping tool that is installed on your computer. To look for this program open the start menu and in the search programs and files box start to type snipping tool and it should open up.  Next you have the option to cute free hand or capture the whole screen.  Once you have what you want selected it will automatically open in paint for you to edit it.
