Google Sites
If you need to create a great way to share student work, provide a framework for specific lesson outcomes, and communicate with parents and students, a Google website is an ideal fit for your classroom.
Tips to Make Your Teacher Web Site More Effective
1. Think of your Web site as a publishing medium, not a technical one.
2. Show what your classroom is really like. Consider having pupil bloggers discussing what they do in class and why... they like and don't like.
3. Consider using a blog as your teacher page. Blogs are easier to update and there are very cool templates available to make your page gun and attractive.
4. Consider a weekly or monthly opinion poll to engage parents. The topic doesn't have to be about the school.
5. Have a publishing schedule. At least in the beginning, you should train yourself to add to you page regularly.
6. Treat your Web site or blog as important. Dedicate enough time in the beginning to build up your audience.
7. Include student images but be mindful of protecting their identity.
8. Include student work. Along with images, these artifact are the reason parents will habitually return to your Web site.
