I am really interested in creating a web site. Actually, I am being
encouraged to do so. I have visited so many wonderful sites and I am curious
as to the purpose??? Are these sites created for parent education or for
teacher information. Some are s elaborated that they totally

Bev,
Do you mean beside purchasing your own domain? We pay only 4 dollars a month
for ours for two sites. Let me know if you want info.

My husband says 3.99 a month for one site. But they do run sales so let me
know if you're interested. I think we are on a sale price. And he says its m
I am very interested in purchasing the book you've mentioned in your
reply, Teaching Struggling Readers: How to Use Brain-Based Research
to Maximize Learning; will it help a middle school teacher as well?
Thank you!

Who will be using your site to copy and such? Will all the material be yours
and available to share via copyright laws?
If you are posting videos you may want to consider a different kind of space
like a wiki or moodle.

One thing I have learned as a Reading Recovery teacher (for 10 years; 31 years
total teaching experience) is that when the kids don't learn, it's not because
they are immature or lazy or disinterested or anything else that is their

Heather, you asked about virtual tours. Here is a
link to one for Hawaii.

That's absolutely true. Any of the NAEYC books do a great job of that for
