how do I stop word and excel automatically opening when I turn computer on?

when I turn my iMac on, about 6 pages of word and excel automatically open which is really annoying. How do I stop this??

Before you shut down, Uncheck "Open windows when logging back in"

After you select Restart or / Logout / Shutdown, it will show a dialog for the checkbox.

Uncheck this box when restarting or shutting down.
