Upgrade and new learning

I posted before to learn something new every year. This year I am going to have to learn how to navigate around the latest version of Microsoft Suite (for not tech people, that would be Word, Excel, PowerPoint). I am hoping that most of my projects will easily transfer over and be compatiable. Teaching this year will bring forth many challenges since my chants (i.e. In-sert pic-ture, clip art) will no longer work. Hopefully the new changes will be easier for my students. It sounds like an opportunity for some curriculum writing updates.
It would not be me not to post a cool tip....
Did you know in the newer version of Microsoft Word instead of saving as a document it can be saved as a .pdf ! If your parents have access to Adobe Acrobat no longer will the issue of your document not being able to open for the user!
