Hi people!This is my tottaly awesome web page that has all of the fabulous work from my 6th grade year. So have a look around and enjoy this web page! Thanks!!!!!!


In word processing skills we typed a lot and we learned how to format words. For that project we used //MS word 2007//, so that we could get used to the program. I enjoyed the part when we got to enter a picture, but I did not enjoy the loads of typing. [|Mia66wps.doc]

For this project we used //MS Word// and //Google Search engine.// For that project we focused on general searches using the Boolean String Search method. Sometimes it was hard to find the answers to the questions. I think the most funny question was: “Who wrote Sk8ter Boy?” [|Mia66IntQues.doc]

We used the track changes feature in //MS Word// to practice editing a word processed document. This was a short lesson, but will be useful when we start peer-editing our fiction and non-fiction writing. [|Mia66MSwordwritingprocess.doc]

 * __Scrapbook Collage with //MS Publisher//__**

This was my favorite project so far in the year. We learned how to make a pretty collage with //MS Publisher.//

During this project, we worked with Google Earth, which is this really cool program that lets you see a bunch of cool places around the world. We also got to try some Google Earth Flight Simulator. It was a cool project altogether. [|Mia66googleearth .pdf]

With this project we played with “online bubbles it was our first time on inspiration. We made an inspiration about Early Man. [|Mia66EarlyMan.ins.jpg]

We did the same project as the Early Man Graphic with //Inspiration//, but used information about early civilizations. [|Mia66EarlyCiv_ins.jpg]

In this project, we made a timeline about Early Man and evolution. It took a lot of cramping words in and we did a lot to save and export. It was an okay project. [|Mia66ancientmanTL.JPG]

**//__MS Excel__// __Spreadsheet Graph on M&Ms__** For this we got to count colors of M&Ms and insert the data into a spreadsheet. At the end of the project we got to eat the M&Ms. Mmmmm![|Mia66M&Mcolor.xlsx]

We looked at a spreadsheet as a database. Each of the cells was a piece of information about the students in the Middle School. We saw how a database can be sorted, based on the information. We updated our own personal information.

In this project we worked with Photoshop and got to alter our school photos. This was a bunch of fun because we could make ourselves look crazy.
