Home	You can click on the word or the icon to return to my homepage. Visit this page to find out a little about my college and teaching experience, my philosophy of education, and about EED 602: the class that I am currently taking which provides the skills necessary to put this site together.
Notes	This document has class assignment and introduction notes pertaining to EED 602. The notes contain information about e-mail procedures, grading policies, assignments, and due dates.
Web Resources	For the web resource assignment we had to find 10 educational websites and present them in Inspiration. Inspiration is a program your school or yourself can buy and it teaches children how to make thinking maps or graphic organizers on the computer. I copied my thinking map into a Word document and added an outline of my website choices.
Newsletter	I made my newsletter for my Back to School Night presentation. It gives the parents in my classroom information about myself, school hours, homework, field trips, volunteering, and other useful information to start out the year. Newsletters are a great way to communicate with parents, and fun to make as well.
E-Grade Book	This is a sample of an electronic grade book. It is a great way to keep your grades organized and simply calculated. It also makes it quick and easy to give a parent a progress report.
Power Point	This power point is a jeopardy game that can be played in the classroom. I designed my own answer board, made up first grade language arts questions, and even learned how to make links to move from slide to slide. I hope you enjoy viewing it as much as I loved making it.
Fireworks	Fireworks is a program that allows you to manipulate pictures. For this assignment we learned how to take an image from the internet and change the color of a certain part of the picture, add a background, and even add text onto the image.
iMovie	The iMovie I made is too large to fit on my website, but if you would like to see it I can e-mail it to you! For this assignment I learned how to edit a movie I mad using I-movie. My movie was about my style of teaching and how I engage all students in the classroom.
Flash	Macromedia flash is an amazing program that allows you to transform images and words. We learned how to make our first name appear into our last names, and then transform back again into our first and last names again.
Extra Credit	I did not need to do any extra credit for the class. For those who did, they had a choice of making a cd with various songs for the classroom, or creating a class list on-line including e-mails and pictures of each student.
