Hello, and welcome to my web page. This is just a collection of my work from this year, and I hope you like it. ~Karen~



In this project, we learned about numbers and bullets, line spacing, and how to insert and format a picture. Mr. Williams also showed us how to use superscripts and subscripts. We had to type what was on the paper that Mr. Williams gave us, and read and understand the paper’s content at the same time.For this project, we got a worksheet from the substitute that had four questions on it. We had to answer the questions by finding the answer on the Internet. To write the answers, we had to state the answer, how we found it (//Google//), and the URL of the website we found it on.

In this project, Mr. Williams gave us each a copy of Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address. He showed us what track changes was. I learned that track changes is very useful for editing a paper, and all the words that you delete are just crossed out, and the new words you type are in red. It was very fun to edit what Mr. Lincoln said. [|Karen62IntQuest.doc]

For this project, we used //Microsoft Publisher// to make a collage. We first had to bring 20-25 pictures on a USB, and then format all the pictures onto a //Microsoft Publisher// document. It was very spectacular to select the colors and format the pictures that I brought. [|Karen62Collage.jpg]

In this project, we learned how to use //Google Earth//. Mr. Williams showed us how to find places and move yourself around the world. I put a pushpin in my home in the USA, and tried to find ISB. I had a little trouble, but I finally found my home in Dragon Bay [|Karen62GoogleEarth.pdf]

We made an //Inspiration// graphic by first using the data Mr. Williams gave us to create a chart. After organizing the chart, we made the //Inspiration// chart into a graphic. We then put the graphic onto a word document, and copy and pasted the chart outline (from the //Inspiration// document) onto the same word document as the //Inspiration// graphic.

We did the same project as the Early Man Graphic with //Inspiration//, but used information about early civilizations. [|Karen62EarlyManIns.jpg]

We put the data that Mr. Williams gave us into a timeline in chronological order. After organizing all the data into the //Timeliner// timeline and adding graphics to make it look nice, we converted the timeline into a graphic. [|KAREN62ANCIENTMANTL.JPG]

 Mr. Williams got two bags of M&Ms and counted the number of M&Ms of each color in the two bags. We took the data and inserted it into an //Excel// spreadsheet table. Next, we transferred the data from the table onto a graph. I made a column graph and made it look nice by changing the colors and adding labels. Last but not least, we got to eat the M&Ms because we all finished the spreadsheet and graph in time. [|Karen62M&MColor.xlsx]

 * //__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. **There is no example because this is confidential information.**

Mr. Williams introduced us to //Photoshop//, and let us morph a photo of ourselves into something weird. I enlarged my eyes and colored my shirt and hair weird colors. My whole class went crazy and ended up looking much stranger than before.
