Last January, the Grade 5 students started creating their websites. They were so excited to create their own site! Like last year, my students are using Weebly since it has more security and moderation features. Students found it easier to design their site since Design options are available. Adding elements is not a problem since students only have to drag and drop them on the page that they are working on .
Organizing the Pages is a different matter, though. Since my students were so excited at first, some of them added a lot of pages and were overwhelmed with them. In the end, I had to tell them to delete some pages. Since we do not have the luxury of time to compose the information they need for their site, I allowed them to copy and paste information from the internet, provided they site their reference and create a link.
It is really amazing to see my students work so hard to improve and make their sites look better!
Too see their sites, click on the tab STUDENTS" SITES ! :)
