How do you cut and paste with an iPad?

[Kid Berwyn]

4. Touch and keep pressing on the first word...

…in the text you want to select. On my iPad, a blue box will pop up around the word.

The box has little dots that you can press and slide with your finger to cover more text, say a paragraph.

The highlighted paragraph, which now should be in blue, will also open a small window with “Copy,” “Find Selection,” “Look Up,” “Translate” and a number of additional functions.

Touch “”Copy” and the blue highlighted text will be copied.

Next, go to the page you want to drop text into.

Press finger on screen where you want text to drop.

Screen will light up “Paste.” Then, drop it there.
