Project #2:
Design a website for your elementary school (group work)
Annotation
For
project #2, we were told to form groups of two or three. Renee,
Tracy and I were in a group together. We created a
elementary school that was fictional. We named our school after
our flash drive and wanted to be cute about it so we elected the Kittie
to be our mascot. We found a cute picture of a cat
watching a mouse run around it in circles on on animationfactory.com.
We chose to include a dress code, lunch menu, and supply
list. We took turns researching the information we wanted to
include, and designing the website. We were required to
use Nvu again to create the website and the links, then uploaded
it to the internet using WS_FTP. When we were done, I had to
transfer our elementary school website we created from Renee's flash
drive to mine, then save, link, and upload. Again, this would be
a great asset to a classroom, not only for the students and myself, but
especially for the parent(s)/guardian(s), because it keeps
the lines for communication open. The students would
have so much fun creating their own school or whatever comes to mind,
the possibilities are endless.
