First I told them to pick a topic that they know a lot about.  It could be from Math, Science, or Social Studies.  Next we went to <a href=\"http:\/\/checkthis.com\">CheckThis<\/a> which is a site I have often used with students to create webpages since it doesn&#8217;t require a login. I showed them how to type a title, subtitle (name), and their information. It&#8217;s important to finish the writing part first before going onto the fun stuff because otherwise students get too distracted. Next we did a Google image search to find a relevant picture and added the link to their webpage. I also showed them how to add a poll. We wanted to create these sites for review so we discussed what makes a good question. After they published their pages, I would usually go around and write down the last 4 digits of their websites (since the first part is the same for all of them) and add it to a GoogleDoc for sharing, but I didn&#8217;t have much time today, so I made a quick Google form that you can see <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/spreadsheet\/viewform?formkey=dDFiblJUZkFfU1RISGlOdld0dGlJUEE6MQ#gid=0\">here<\/a>, and asked the students to enter the last 4 digits themselves.  Then I published the results as a webpage with all the links.  You can see it by clicking <a href=\"http:\/\/tinyurl.com\/4thhallsites\">here<\/a>.  Try visiting a couple of sites and answering their poll questions. One last thing, in trying to take a screenshot of one of the sites for the sample picture on this post, I found it difficult to capture the whole site since it wouldn&#8217;t fit on my screen. Then I discovered a cool webtool called <a href=\"http:\/\/site2pic.com\/\">Site2Pic<\/a> that did the trick!
