Hello everyone, welcome to my grade 6 web page. This web page shows different works that I have done in ISB during 6th grade, including Social Studies, Science, Math, Computer and more. I hope you enjoy it! Thank you!

__**Word Processing**__ During Word Processing Skills lesson, we typed out a paper of instructions that told us about Word Processing Skills and how to do things in word processing. We learned and practiced how to do numbers and bullets, indented paragraphs, block paragraphs, line spacing and formatting graphic pictures in different ways. We also learned about other different things like super scripts and sub scripts and inserting tables. I could do most of the skills, but I found it a bit difficult on writing in different kinds of paragraphs and using page break correctly. [|Jane 6-8 WPS.doc]

We researched different kind of questions using //Google.// Then we formatted the questions on the //MS Word Document//. The formatting and researching on the internet using //Google// was the main thing that we learned on this unit. [|Jane 6-8 IntQues.doc]

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. [|Jane 6-8 MS Word - Writing Process.doc]

Scrapbook Collage with //MS Publisher// __** This time we used //MS Publisher// to make a collage out of photos of our family, friends and our selves. We learned how to insert photos, format them correctly and order them the way we wanted. I thought this project was fun because we got to see photos of our friends and their family.

We found out that the //Google Earth// was an online mapping program, using satellite photos of the Earth. //Google Earth// allows us to go where ever we want on earth and so I looked for my house in Korea. It was interesting to see things on earth from the top view! [|Jane 6-8 Google earth.pdf]

We used the information about the early man to make the timeline using //TimeLiner//. We also learned how to insert pictures and graphics in //TimeLiner//. By using //TimeLiner//, we could also read the timeline easily and effectively. I enjoyed using //TimeLiner.// [|Jane_6-8_Ancient_Man_tl.jpg]

//__MS Excel__// __Spreadsheet Graph on M&Ms__ **  In this class, we got to work on data table and graphing different information on //MS Excel,// and I made a column graph about number of M&Ms. luckily, since we used M&Ms to work on our graphs, we could eat M&Ms at the end!

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.**

In //Photoshop// we altered and morphed our own school photos, and I erased my own face and had my head covered with many colors. We all got to learn different ways to morph around with our photos and to play with it.
