After signing in on the computer, Zeke opened the lid of the scanner to have a look and WHERE he was placing his negatives. He'd read the directions, but seeing was believing, and sure enough - once the lid was lifted, he could see the spot marked out already for him. Weeeeee.

Taking a pair of scissors, Zeke carefully cut off one of the images from his strip - as the scanner could only fit five, not six. He had been very careful when holding his negatives, always on the edges between his fingers, not making any contact with the actual image. But once it was cut, he held it up to inspect closer, and in doing so gave it a quick blow to rid it of any pesky dust that had settled. Booo to dust.

Placing the negative strip into the scanner - shiny side down, Zeke made sure it was positioned correctly and then he closed the lid. Then all there was left to be done - really - was to get it scanning. Zeke clicked the button with his index finger, and then smiled at the sounds it made in response. Quickly, he crossed off his notes the actions he had done.

SPOILER!!: Homework notes

* Use a scanner attached to the computer in the technology center
* Make sure the computer and scanner are both turned on.

* On the lid of the scanner when you open it, you should see a slot to insert a sheet of up to five negatives; it is embellished to resemble a film strip. You may need cut your negative strip as you cannot develop more than 5 images at a time; just be careful to not cut the actual image.
* Blow any dust from the negative and be careful not to leave fingerprints or smudges (so as we held it from its edges in class, i would continue to do so in handling it)

* Insert the negative to scan into the slot with the shiny side facing the glass of the scanner.
* Close the lid and press the button to scan it into the computer.

* A menu screen should pop up onto the computer monitor; select the option to print negatives in the scanner monitor. Resolution should be set to 300 ppi and type of digital file, JPEG.
* Complete the scanning process from your computer, clicking 'scan' on the menu, which will create a digital image saved onto the computer that you can elect to print out as a hard copy.
* Repeat for a minimum of 5 pictures
