Project #6: Microsoft Publisher Project

Annotation

For this project, we had worked together in groups to create a calendar and a newsletter using Microsoft Publisher and Paint.  My group consisted of Stephanie, Shannon and I.  After we completed the calendar and newsletter, we used the paint accessory to make a print screen as the link instead of the plain old text link.  Next, we saved our other group members projects to our individual desktops and transferred the files onto our flashdrives, then we uploaded it our homepage using WS_FTP.  Although I have never used Microsoft Publisher or Paint before, I found them both very easy and fun to use.  I found the print screen option especially helpful and convinent.  I would absolutely use those two programs in my classroom.  I would use the calendar monthly, and the newsletter weekly to send home with my students, therefore, keeping the parents and/or guardians up to date with what is happening in the classroom.  I could have the students take turns helping me design both the calendar and the newsletter.  The students would benefit from helping me, by becoming familiar with both Microsoft Publisher and Paint.  The students would also benefit from helping me by taking part in creating both handouts, therefore, allowing them to be creative in regards to colors, pictures, information, etc.
