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?
