Gavin 6-5 Web Page Descriptions December 9, 2008


 * Web Page Descriptions **

We typed a paper that taught us how to use a lot of word processing skills. We learned how to insert graphics, make different types of paragraphs and lists we also met Mr. Williams’ frog Fluffy. We also learned how to use superscripts and subscripts. I liked inserting the picture the most. [|Gavin65WPS.doc]
 * __ Word Processing __**

We used //Google// to find random questions Mr. Williams asked; we have to use the format of his choice. The information we got didn’t really matter but the way to find it and the way to format the answers mattered. [|Gavin65IntQues.doc]
 * __ Word Processing and Internet Searching __**

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 with fiction and non-fiction writing. [|Gavin65MS Word - Writing Process.doc]

Scrapbook Collage with //MS Publisher// __** We used //MS Publisher// to make a collage of ourselves our friends and our family we used pictures from our USB and some people took pictures off of //Facebook//. I liked doing this because I remember good times. [|Gavin65Collage.jpg]

We explored the really awesome program //Google Earth// in this program you can zoom so far in on the world you can see your house. People can also post pictures of places so you can see it closer. You can also use the flight simulator to fly over the landscape. I like finding people’s houses. [|Gavin65 Google Earth.pdf]

Early Man Graphic with //Inspiration// __** We looked at information about early man and one way to organize that information as a graphic. //Inspiration// lets you make bubbles that you can put the information in it looks really cool and you can put pictures in the space of the bubbles, I had a fun time using //Inspiration//!

Early Civilization Graphic with //Inspiration// __** We did the same project as the Early Man Graphic with //Inspiration//, but used information about early civilizations. [|Gavin65_Early_Civ_ins.jpg]

We used a program called //Timeliner// to find the dates of when early civilizations were made. I learned how spread out all of the civilizations are. //Timeliner// is a really neat program. [|GAVIN65_ANCIENT_MAN_TL.JPG]

.**__ Ms Excel Spreadsheet Graphic on M&M's __**

Counting M&Ms was kind of boring but I really liked the part when we were formatting the graph. I liked seeing the data and how good it looked in my column graph. At the end we each got to eat 2 M&Ms, not enough! But it was still Tasty! [|Gavin65 M&M Color.xls]


 * __MS Excel Spreadsheet as a Database__**

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. Sorry you are not allowed to see this.

With the tool of //PhotoShop// I made my hair look cool, and i gave myself a I had lots of fun.
 * __ Altered Photos with //PhotoShop// __**
