Suggestions

If you need assistance setting up your webpage, please contact Karen Thompson.

Using a PC? Use Firefox for your browser, not Internet Explorer.

Be consistent! Take a look at teacher websites and use the great examples.

Use Settings to make sure your name is listed as you want students to read it. Don't forget to add your photo!

Create and spellcheck your news articles in a word processor and then copy and paste them to your website.

PLEASE DON'T TYPE IN ALL CAPS.

Remember, be safe with your students! Never use names under a photo.

This is your professional website. All school related information only!

Be legal on clipart, photos, and quotes. If you've copied it from a webpage, the site will tell you if you can put it on your website, and how you need to reference it.

A photo gallery should contain a few pictures. If you only want a single photo, then attach that to an article.

Use delete, if necessary.

Add a category and keep adding information to that. For example, the newsletter category will hold all your newsletters for the year. News will hold all your news articles and archive them.

Be sure that text is a pdf attachment. Name a PDF with a single word and the extension .pdf For example frog.pdf

When you're done working on the website, log out.
