This is great freeware that you can download.  just tell it where you are and it will tell you what you see.  

Answer 3

You may get free star charts from any where. Try to find out what is listed there

Answer 4

Download the appropriate sky map each month for your location.  One page has lists of stuff to find.  There are three categories.  Naked eye, binoculars, and telescope.  If your scope is small, like 50 mm, consider it a binocular.  If you have heavy light pollution, consider it naked eye.  Start with easy objects and work towards harder ones.

And, the star chart has the constellations.  Try to find those too.
