Still seems ambitious for Grade 10. Suggest Mint 17 as LTS or Ubuntu. RedHat (yum) is more technical. synaptic is a sweet graphical way to manage updates.
In passing, odd things worth explaining: (Others will doubtless add their pets) 1) advantage of LTS versions 2) CLI evils of spaces and punctuation in file names (use underscores and caps with too MS) eg ThisIsMine.txt or This_is_mine.txt (It once took me several minutes to rename a manager's file to "x") interesting challenge to give some nasty names: This'intended;$(to) "make you mental" & [nutty]. txt 3) yes Virginia there are BSDs and they serve an important purpose 4) find and grep/egrep have special powers My 18 y.o has been using Linux since he was 4. With school project PowerPoint and such he has become expert at knowing where open/libre Office don't quite match the MS products. Ambitious doesn't quite cover it. Good Hunting!
