So that we are ready to understand the setting of this book, students were given separate research topics. They then posted their information on the Voicethread you see below.

Today we set up e-portfolios using the Weebly site. It's a simple, user-friendly application. We can drag and drop all kinds of things into web pages: You Tube videos, blogs, photos, voicethreads, Glogster posters, and documents (and oh-so-much-more). The portfolios will be used to showcase the great work the students are doing. They will also be places for students to reflect on their learning. Click on the links to the right to visit the student sites. Since we are in the process of making them, there isn't much up yet, but that will change soon.
