Creating a Website Day Two

Tuesday May 29th:
Today in class we worked with Dreamweaver some more and it went differently than I thought that it would.  I was expecting to get really frustrated, but honestly I didn't which is good.  I only got a little frustrated a few times when something would not work, but other than that I had an alright time working with the program.

What did I like:
I liked that I could create what I wanted on the website and that I could control where I wanted things to go.  I was also able to choose what color I wanted and the theme which was nice.  I became more familiar with the website as I worked with it more and did more things like add pictures as well.

What did I not like:
I did not like how I had to start over at one point when creating the pages that I wanted for each subsection, but rather than start from scratch each time I saved them all again and deleted some to make it easier on me.  I also did not like that if you used a certain font for one of the pages, that we could not combine the pages and have all of these different fonts, but I guess if I would have created one main page with a bunch of fonts I could have had all of them.

How I would use this in the classroom:
I would use this as a resource for my students and their families to help them with information and resources.  It could be used to help families keep updated on what is going on in the classroom and it could be used as a resource for my students if they want to expand their learning.  It could also be used to help my families find information like the school website and announcements on what will be coming up soon in the classroom or if I need to tell my students families some important information.
