Computer Software worksheet - Free Printable

Let's solve this step by step.

We are given a table with icons of various software applications, and we need to:

1. Identify the name of each software based on its icon.
2. Explain what it is used for, using the provided list of uses at the bottom.

Step 1: Match the Icons to Software Names

Let’s go through each icon one by one:

1. Green icon with an "X" → This is Excel
2. Blue icon with a "P" → This is PowerPoint
3. Blue icon with an "O" → This is Outlook
4. Blue "e" with a yellow ring → This is Internet Explorer
5. Red icon with an "A" and database symbol → This is Access
6. Orange scroll-like icon with colorful design → This is Publisher
7. Red circle with a "P" → This is PowerPoint (Wait — this seems duplicate? But likely different from #2.)
- Actually, looking closely: The first "P" is PowerPoint (blue), the second "P" is red — that might be Publisher?
- Wait, no — let’s double-check:
- The red "P" is actually Publisher? No — typically Publisher has a more complex icon.
- Looking again: The orange scroll is Publisher, and the red "P" is PowerPoint? But we already have a blue "P".
- Wait — actually, the first "P" (teal/blue) is PowerPoint, and the red "P" might be Publisher? No — not matching.

Let’s re-evaluate carefully.

Looking at the icons:

1. Green X → Excel
2. Blue P → PowerPoint
3. Blue O → Outlook
4. Blue e with ring → Internet Explorer
5. Red A with stack → Access
6. Orange scroll with flowers → Publisher
7. Blue W with lines → Word
8. Blue Ps → Photoshop
9. Blue sphere with pencil → Moviemaker

So now we can match:

| Icon | Name |
|------|------|
| Green X | Excel |
| Blue P | PowerPoint |
| Blue O | Outlook |
| Blue e | Internet Explorer |
| Red A | Access |
| Orange scroll | Publisher |
| Blue W | Word |
| Blue Ps | Photoshop |
| Blue sphere with pencil | Moviemaker |

Now fill in the table accordingly.

Step 2: Match Uses

From the list at the bottom:

- Excel → Spreadsheets – calculations, graphs/charts
- Outlook → Emailing
- Internet Explorer → To browse the internet
- Access → Databases, to store data about customers etc.
- Publisher → Newsletters, leaflets, posters
- Word → To write a document or letter
- Photoshop → To alter images
- Moviemaker → To create a movie
- PowerPoint → To create a slideshow
- Serif Drawplus → To create posters, animations (but not shown in icons)
- Powerpoint (duplicate) → Already listed

But in our icons, we don't see Serif Drawplus, so we ignore it.
