Comments on Powerpoint, Excel, Webquest

How interesting all of the projects were! Being a first grade teacher, I thoroughly enjoyed the SHAPES powerpoint. I thought it would also be appropriate for the first grade level. It is a good review for the students. I also have ELL's in my class and it would be a good activity for computer center time. For the Excel spreadsheet, I am looking forward to incorporating a QUESTION OF THE DAY. Students used the spreadsheet to indicate what there favorite color was, how they came to school, etc. This is a good activity that would also be appropriate with 1st graders. As graphing is a required skill, this would be good daily practice for the children. Finally, I liked the RAINFOREST webquest. The pictures were absolutely beautiful! I could see utilizing a webquest for a topic in our curriculum, such as color, light or air.
