GOOGLE SITES

I now have my very own teacher website! How very exciting is that? Check it out HERE! Okay, so It is a fake school and all, it is still something to look forward to when I am able to make one for real. I learned everything that I need to know and I feel very confident that I will have a great Class Website one day very soon!
We were given sites where we could get free images to make our site look cute and entertaining. We were also given sites where we were able to make a banner for each page. To me, this really gave the website the finishing touch to look professional. At the bottom of each page, we put a link to e-mail the webmaster (me), date of last revision, and the URL to that page of the site.
I had a problem at one point because I did not save my work and I was very upset when I realized that I had clicked off of the page and none of my work saved! :-0 Not a good thing, but it was a lesson learned the hard way. I will NOT do that again, that is for sure.  If I had a child in school, it would put me at great ease to know that their homework assignments, school supply list, teacher contact information, etc. was all online for me to access anytime I needed/wanted to. This is another great thing about technology that really excites me.Upon completing this assignment I think I have met more than one of the standards in this assignment. I think I have met NET standards two, four, and five. I have been able to take something that a teacher has to do anyway and make it technologically adaptable.  This also helps teachers show leadership and professionalism by, once again, using technology.
