Geometric
Relationships

EXAMPLE: Teacher
collects data from class
about what website they
want to use to create an
ePortfolio, then uses that
data as a statistic and
represents in a graph.
STANDARD: Visual
displays are used to
represent data

EXAMPLE: Students
use different shapes
that they have learned
about to decorate
their website and
make the page look
visually appealing.
They must describe
shapes geometrically.
STANDARD:
Geometric figures in
the plane and in space

Reading, Writing, and Communicating

1. Oral Expression

2. Reading for All

Purposes
3. Writing and
Composition

EXAMPLE: Students
must physically plan
their writing before
publishing it on their
website. It is
important to sound
professional and
accurate on a public
domain.
STANDARD: A clear
communication plan is
necessary to
effectively deliver and
receive information

EXAMPLE: Teacher
provides examples of
correct and professional
grammar to use on their
websites.
STANDARD: Correct
sentence formation,
grammar, punctuation,
capitalization, and
spelling are applied to
make the meaning clear
to the reader

UnderstandingStudents plan
their writing
before putting it
on their website
to ensure they
know what
exactly they are
supposed to be
doing and what
they are going
to write.

Students
write different
ideas they
want to write
about on
separate
pieces of
paper. They
arrange these
pieces of
paper on their
desks to
determine the
best order to
write their
ideas in.

1. History

2. Geography

EXAMPLE: Teachers write

several biographies of
different Coloradan
historians on their
websites to demonstrate
how to insert pictures
(portraits of the
historians).
STANDARD: The historical
eras, individuals, groups,
ideas, and themes in
Colorado history and their
relationships to key
events in the United
States

Understanding
Teacher
describes how
to put pictures
onto a website
to allow
students this
option in the
future.

EXAMPLE: Students
use geographical
terms to describe the
geography of their
neighborhoods.
STANDARD: Use
several types of
geographic tools to
answer questions
about the geography
of Colorado

ApplyingTeacher uses
information the
class has
previously
learned about
historians in
their
biographies.
EvaluatingStudents assess
what kind of
environment
their
neighborhood is
and use
knowledge of
geography to
describe it.

way, they
can keep

3. Economics
4. Civics

1. Physical Science
EXAMPLE: Students
create columns on
their website to
compare and contrast
characteristics of
living organisms.
STANDARD: All living
things share similar
characteristics, but
they also have
differences that can
be described and
classified

Differentiation
Learning Disabilities
- EEOs
Physical Disabilities

Gifted/ Talented

If a student has a motor

disability and is unable to
successfully use a
computer to create a
website, the teacher could
help the student create
their page with the
students direction. For
example, the teacher
could move the mouse
while the student tells
them where to move it.
Students who are
gifted/talented have
lots of flexibility in
their website and can
make it as complex as
they choose. They can
choose to make
multiple tabs and use
as many visual effects
as they deem
necessary.

Other
Reflection: ePortfolios, or online websites, are a great tool to use in the classroom. They allow the teacher to keep tabs on what
each student is learning, and how each one is progressing throughout the year. Online websites also provide a resource for
parents and other teachers to see what your class is doing each day. In this progressing world of technology, it is important to
equip students with knowledge that will help them excel in their future career. Learning how to effectively create a website,

especially while learning grade-appropriate content at the same time, is something that will greatly benefit all students. I can
definitely see myself using ePortfolios in my future classroom because it is great way to make lessons more engaging and hands
on.
