Hi Shane, To find out what's on your iPad, go to Settings, choose General, then Storage & iCloud Usage. Choose Manage Storage to see a list of everything on your iPad, with whatever is taking the most space listed first. You can delete things from that screen by double-tapping them and choosing the Delete option.
To lock your iPad orientation, touch the status bar and flick up with three fingers to open Control Center. You'll find the Lock Orientation control there. The About option in the General section of Settings gives you information about the iOS version you are running. There is a model number there as well. YOu could probably search for iPad followed by the model number online to find out which generation it is.
