I had two initial ideas for a website. I chose to further a project I completed for LIS 716 (Communication for Leadership). The project I created was a pathfinder for the first grade team/students at my school. The topic is dinosaurs since they will be studying this soon. So I decided to create my website based on the materials I had already gathered. I will eventually link the website from my school’s website.
The first page is quite boring so I will have to spruce it up eventually. The second page is a link to a smattering of print resources Allen (my school) offers. I listed fiction, non-fiction, and guided reading books. The third page is media resources. These are websites and webquests. Finally, my pdf is a complete listing of the actual pathfinder.
I was rather frustrated in completing this project. My skill level is below that of others in the class and I think my site epitomizes the typical 80s site (ugh). I need a lot more practice to produce better work and imagine creativity will come in time. I am glad to have had this opportunity to enjoy class with awesomely talented colleagues and superb instructor. I just want to add that I feel better about my project today than I did yesterday. With the help and support of classmates, I am glad to have completed my first official html coded webpage. Thanks again…Teresa
Thanks to Renee who helped me design and execute the site. Hopefully, public acknowledgement won’t lead to a grade reduction.

I like the consistency between the pages, especially the graphic at the top. How did you get the image color to change? That’s so cool. Very kid-friendly site!

Teresa, this is so much fun! I kind of want to do this project now. I wish I’d had this when I did my big dinosaur project in elementary school!
