  • Students will be responsible for a rough written draft of their web site.  This can be done on paper or using Inspiration.

  • inclusion of a home page.
  • three links on the main page that link to other pages of the website. (Therefore, each student needs to have at least 4 pages, a main page, and 3 secondary pages)
  • three links to external web sites.
  • use of colors, and pictures on each web page.
  • organized and easy to navigate.
  • all graphics and links work correctly.
