My subject for my lesson is social studies. My topic is history and my outcome is that students will have an understanding of folklore in their community as well as other cultures.

SS.O.2.5.5 read children’s books, stories, legends, myths and folklore and collect data from timelines, charts and graphs to compare and contrast the variety of traditions, languages, structures of families and community life in different cultures, (e.g., Native Americans, early settlers, cultures around the world), and draw conclusions from what they have learned.

We uploaded a document from Microsoft Word and published as a web page.
click HERE to see my document.

Name 3 places to save a document and tell the pros and cons of each one.
1.) USB- you could lose it and if that happens there goes all your work!
2.)Desktop-you can't get to it unless you are using your own computer
3.) Google Docs- you can access these documents no matter what computer you are using
