This website was made specifically for the English Language Arts (ELA) classes I teach. Because our time is short, and we do so much, I figured it would be nice to create a website that would allow students to review what was done in class, catch up if they missed something, and just to explore language arts topics further.
I broke down the website into various pages, all of which are based on the activities we work through on a daily basis. You will notice that I only completed the "Homepage" and the "ELA Starters" pages. However, I would work to make the other pages very similar to the two showcased. I tried to include a section that could can update quickly on a weekly basis (so I dont have to update everyday and updating doesnt take me forever as all teachers are already super busy) as well as links to other websites and helpful documents.
I hope you enjoy the website and I think I will continue to work on this page for my students to use this year. Our district provides access to webpage space, but I definitely like the ease of use Google Sites provides, and some of the formatting options that are available through google and not through the basic service provided by the district.
I would love comments and suggestions if you have them! Let me know what you think!

That is a really good idea for a website. We always need something for students to do to maintain the skills that have been taught. Most students have access to a computer and most parents have email so this could easily be used by both students and parents. And because it is a website students cannot say that they lost their homework.

I have an ideas for up-dating the homework page. I have a student that writes the homework on the board...I will probably have that student enter the homework into the website and I will write it on the board. I let you know if it works.
