    OTHER PARTS OF A COMPUTER

                  Some other parts that can be attached to a computer are as follows:

                       Printer: It prints on the paper what we see on the monitor.
                                                                                                               Printer

                                       Speakers: When we play music, a cartoon, or a video, the sound comes
                                      from the speakers.

                  INPUT AND OUTPUT DEVICES

                  Input  and  output  devices are essential parts of  a computer system that help  us
                  communicate with  the  computer by  sending  information  to it and  receiving  results

                  from it.

                  Input Devices: Devices that help us give information or commands to a computer.

                  Some examples of input devices are a keyboard (for typing), a mouse (for pointing and
                  clicking), and a microphone (for recording sound).

                  Output Devices: Devices that show us information or results from a computer.

                  Some examples of output devices are a monitor (for displaying images and text), a
                  printer (for printing documents or pictures), and speakers (for playing sound).

                     Using pictures from newspapers and magazines, create a collage of computer parts,

                     then label each part to discuss their functions.

                                     If CPU is like brain of a computer, then which part of a computer is like its
                                     mouth?
