Class 3 Computer Worksheet: Hardware and Software
Remember (Can you touch it?): Hardware = parts we can touch: keyboard, mouse, monitor, printer, hard disk, pen drive. Software = programs: a word processor, a paint program, a web browser, an operating system, games, apps. Hardware needs software to work, and software needs hardware to run on.
