Hi, Welcome to my web page. It has all my wonderful work from this year. I hope you enjoy this page as much as I enjoyed making this page!

Oh and I like apples and purple.

Cheers, Vanessa



In this project we learned skills that will help us in our future typing. We learned about numbers and bullets, typing skills, how to change line spaces, paragraphs, inserting a page break etc. We also learned about formatting formulas and superscripts and subscripts, and how to make a table. I think this project is very useful for later use. [|Vanessa67wps.doc]

In this project we had to answer a few questions using different types of layout e.g. bullet points and blocks paragraphs. In our answer we had to include the URL the answer and what source we used. I think this project will help me later when I have projects that need special layouts.

Word Processing and Editing with Track Changes __**  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 non-fiction and fiction writing.

In this fun project we collected a few pictures of our life including our families, friends and ourselves. We put the pictures on a //MS Publisher// document. This project helped me understand //MS Publisher// better and would help me with future projects using //MS Publisher.//

We explored on a cool program //Google// Earth. It is a program that lets you explore the world and see different places just by sitting in front of your computer. Using this program I saw my own house and saw different countries. This is a program that will help me in future projects that involves geography.

We learned about early man in this project. We used //Timeliner// to organize information about early man. In this project I learned how to use //Timeliner// better. I liked this project because I learned how to use the //Timeliner// program and I learned some information about early man.

//Inspiration// is a great tool because it is efficient and organized. In this program it lets you create a neat and organized web. I like this program because it is very easy to use.

In this activity we learned how to use //Timeliner// and how to organize data. This program lets you create a timeline that helps you organize your work chromatically. //Timeliner// is a great program and it will help me with later projects.

**__Early Man Timeline__**  We made a graph on //MS Excel// about the different colors in a packet of M&M’s. It was great fun seeing that there were more brown M&M’s in one packet and there were more blue M&M’s in the other packet. We learnt to use //MS Excel// and I think that would help me in later years. Also in the end we got eat the M&M’s which made was really fun.YUM YUM!!!

We looked at a spreadsheet as a database. Each of the cells was a piece of information about the students in the Middle School. **There is no example because this is confidential information**//.// We saw how a database can be sorted, based on the information. We updated our own personal information.

We used //PhotoShop// to “morph” our school pictures. It was great fun playing around with our pictures. On the way I learned how to use //PhotoShop// and now I can morph any picture I want to.
