Building a Home Page Assignment
Your wiki home page is much like any home page, it acts as an introduction to your site or space. There may be an introduction to who you are or why you are there. While this page is about the course or class it does give the viewer a glimpse about you. The home page need to pull you in and create an interest. It also needs to supply the basic information needed.

For this assignment you are building that home page as if you are the teacher. Imagine the class you want to teach what do you want the students, parents and administration to know about your class in a glance. On your wiki edit your home page into not the introduction to wikispaces but into and intro to your class. Think about what an interested view would need to know. The home page needs to include:
 * Your name
 * Grade level
 * name of school
 * Two graphics or images
 * one text box.
 * one hyperlink to the web or another page in the wiki.
 * For extra points you may include a widget or link to YouTube (or other video)

This is due Wednesday, January 25, there will be time to work in class and ask questions. You will need to come with a good start on this project.

There are excellent helps on the Wikispaces site. Press the "help" in the upper right corner or your wiki. Here is an additional excellent source (Educational Wikis) for more information on wikis.
