18. K-Technology Project 1 Description The students worked very hard to create their own personal web site. Students in Kindergarten created a web site consisting of ONE page. The page contained their answer to five questions. The questions generated a message similar to that of an introductory pen-pal letter. Students also worked to select graphics they wished to leave on their web site. Each student deleted the graphics they didn’t wish to keep as a part of their web site. The web site was then linked from their teacher’s web site on the Gardner Kindergarten Teachers’ Web Site: http://www.hssd.net/gardner/kindergarten/kindergarten.html http://www.hssd.net/gardner/kindergarten/kindergarten.html
