Hello, this is my webpage. I recommend you use Firefox to view this. I have put a year's effort into all of this work you are about to view.

Hope you enjoy, Michael the Firefox Supporter



We typed up a paper that told us how to do many basic things in //Microsoft Word//, such as formatting pictures, bullets and numbering, changing line spacing, inserting page breaks, and inserting tables. A lot of this was new to I me because have not used //Microsoft Word 2007// before. I also learned how to do all the exponents with superscripts; it has helped me with math quite a bit.

In this paper, we used //Google// to find the answers to questions. We recorded them in many different ways, like block paragraphs, or maybe bullets. We learned to put in the URLs and the search engine that we used. This helped me better understand the different tools in //Microsoft Word 2007//. [|MichaelK64IntQues.doc]

We used the Track Changes feature in //Microsoft Word 2007// to practice editing a processed document. This was a short lesson, but will be useful when we start peer editing our non-fiction and fiction writing. [|MichaelK64MS Word - Writing Process.doc]

We made a collage using //Microsoft Publisher//, with pictures of friends, family, and us. We also applied a colorful background and used Word art to write our names. We also learned how order pictures and make them come to the front of what. This was a fun and was not a project that took a long time. [|MichaelK64Collage.jpg]

We used //Google Earth// to find our houses and other famous landmarks. We were allowed to use the Flight Simulator feature too. Mr. Williams showed us his houses in Florida and where he lived as a kid. I thought it was very fun. [|MichaelK64GoogleEarth.pdf]

We used the software //Timeliner// to help us make a timeline about early man. We learned how to organize the info in //Timeliner//, and we added some graphics. It was a fun thing to do, and helped me better understand //Timeliner.// [|MichaelK64AncientManChina.JPG]

Early Man Graphic and //Inspiration// __** We used //Inspiration//, a graphic organizer, to organize our information. We learned how to change colors of bubbles and add a picture as a bubble; we also learned quick ways to make bubbles with “RapidFire” and “Create”. I learned quite a bit about Inspiration and Early Man in this interesting project. [|MichaelK64Early_ManIns.jpg]

We did almost the same thing as Early Man Graphic and //Inspiration// but we used Chinese Dynasties information. [|MichaelK64ChineseDynastiesIns.jpg]

** //__MS Excel__// __Graph for M&M's__ **  We used //Microsoft Excel// to make a graph to record data of the Colors of M&M’s. We got to choose from multiple types of graphs and customize it to our liking. After that we got to eat M&M’s and Skittles. [|MichaelK64M&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.**

We learned about basic tools in Photoshop and tried some out on our own. We altered our school photos and made very freaky pictures. I had a lot of fun on this project and I think my pictured turned out well.
