How exciting! This is my web address! This took me a lot of time to put together. If I had my own classroom this would have been much easier to envision and complete, however I did draw from some of the sources I have from when I taught 5th grade.
I love the idea of having a site where students and parents and teacher can all interact. Being able to include documents of forms the students need is a plus, I can't tell you how many times I made copy after copy of a particular form because students keep losing theirs. This way, their parents can print off a copy at home and the student no longer has the excuse, "I can't find it!"
Being able to share websites is not only a jump start for students, but for their parents as well. It's one thing when you give them the web site address, but it's quite another when all they have to do is click on the link and they are there. That extra step makes a big difference, especially for students just beginning to learn how to use the web, and their parents who may have little to no experience.
I have to experiment more with how to insert pictures. I would have liked to used the space on page 2 of my website better.
I found that I wished the feature to add video was free, but sadly, it was not. When I again have my own classroom, that will be a feature worth purchasing.
