Formatting text — Computer worksheet

Formatting changes how text looks. Bold makes letters thick and dark, italic makes them slant and underline draws a line under them. We can change the font (the style of letters), its size and colour, highlight text, and make bulleted or numbered lists. Alignment sets where lines sit: left, centre, right or justify (straight on both edges).

Remember

B, I, U — “Ctrl+B bold, Ctrl+I italic, Ctrl+U underline”

  1. Bold = thick and dark (Ctrl+B); italic = slanting (Ctrl+I); underline = a line under the text (Ctrl+U).
  2. Font size = bigger or smaller letters; font colour = coloured letters; highlight = colour behind the text.
  3. Left align, centre align, right align, and justify = straight on both edges.

Use it for: Class 4 word-processing lessons, making a class notice or a title page for a project.

Worked example: 🅱️ Which style makes letters slant? → italic

  1. Slanting letters lean to one side, like this.
  2. That style is italic.

Check: I for italic, I for “inclined” ✓
