Fear is in never trying, fear is in giving up.  Never fear the unknown, never let the system win and when all else fails, back it up, wipe it out and start over... Robin

Graphics, Graphics & More Graphics

This page is a culmination of everything I did during the first semester.  I don't have a lot to add except to say, if you have the tools at your disposal, and you can find a way to work graphics into your lessons, you really should try.  Although it is easy for students to run out to Google every time they want to add a graphic to their presentation, or website, or even book report, they may find using someone else's ideas don't exactly say what they want to say.  Using someone else's graphic may also not be legal, which is something we all should be conscious of.  If a child can draw a stick figure, they can create their own graphic.  If they can manipulate a picture, they can create their won graphic.  It may take a little more time but by having, and honing, this skill there is so much more they may be able to accomplish.
