Website Big Bang

How do we want to set up the page for our big project? I have started the page but I really don't think this is what we need for this page. I have a website linked to the page for doing recycling projects at school that I think is very helpful with lots of ideas on it. Lots of projects the students can also do at school for recycling projects.

I changed the link under the picture for Earth day so that it opened a new window.

I agree with Linda on the Earth Day page. We need to have it open a new window. We will work on fixing this today.

Website Additions

Allison I like what you added to the website, but you might want to check the link on the Earth Day page because it should pull up a new window and it didn't when I clicked on the link. It's taking the current window to that page so you have to go back to get back to the website.

website

I have started writing an introduction for our webpage but it is not completed yet. If you have any ideas or think any part of what I have written so far needs to be changed please do so. I will be looking at more of the clip arts to add to other pages this weekend.

Podcast

I think we did a great job with our podcast and it sounds good. Does anyone know if we all have to submit the podcast or just one of us? I've been wondering about this today after our submission last night.

Podcast

We worked on our podcast today. We recorded it and made changes to it. It is sounding good.

Update

This week we worked on our script for the podcast. We worked on it together.

Hey guys! I was thinking a little about the assignment, and I was thinking maybe we could talk about how we are including more than one subject area in our recycling project and then we can talk about the lesson plan 2 assignment because that deals with math and graphing. If you let me know what your 2nd lesson plan was about I can finish writing up the script this weekend, and then we will be ready to record it on Monday.
