Hello! i'm back!

Hey! I haven't been writing for a few weeks noe because I have had loads and loads of work in I.T. (since we are changing teacher and we don't have much time to waste). I think that i can sum it all up in one post...

So we left off with the search engines...

After that lesson we started investigating asbout newsletter and their purpose. We did this investigation because we were going to do a newsletter about community and service. WIth this investigation was that newsletters were used to give information to people and that they come to us many diffrent ways!


In the next lesson we started to learn how to compare bettween a fact or an opinion. We did loads of activities including a quiz about wolfs in which we had to say if the statement siad was a fact or an opinion.

Then we had to find websites about newsletter design. We had to go to a search engine and type "Newsletter design" and this brought us up some good and some bad websites which would help us to make a good design for our newsletter.

In the following lessons I started to work on my newsletter. First we had to investigate about the topic, chose a template from publisher 2007, plan and finaly create! It was tought but I did it! I finished my newsletter and I think it looks great! Here's a picture:

Doing this newsletter was great fun!!!
