Week 2 The Teacher's Webpage

I think it was such a lucky coincidence because once I clicked on the link provided by professor Bigsby, I chose to go through the Saddle Brook district page and saw a few teacher webpages there and found a webpage which really impressed me. Nevertheless, I also decided to go through other webpages of other school districts such as Paramus, Hanover, Fair Lawn etc., but I found them to be very not in "depth" because most of them had either too much unnecessary teacher background information and a very few useful links, or were very poor on information and not updated.


The one that really impressed me was my first click, Mrs. McGuire's Class Webpage. Mrs. McGuire is a faculty member who teaches second graders at Helen I. Smith elementary school in Saddle Brook here in New Jersey.  If you navigate through her webpage, you will see clearly how she has all the subjects listed on the side, her schedule, some useful links that are related to the subjects she teaches and also a site map. I tried to imagine myself as a parent for a moment and I found it very helpful to navigate through this webpage because of the following reasons:

 I could find everything very easily without having to spend a lot of time. The webpage was very artistic and childlike unlike some other webpages. If I needed to see what my child's homework was then I clicked on the homework link. In order to learn about the  math program  I clicked on the math link. If i needed social studies then i clicked on social studies etc. If I wanted to get my child involved in extra curricular activities, the links the teacher provided were really great. In other words, her webpage is very informational and humble.

 I recommend Mrs. McGuires webpage format to the future teachers because it is very helpful and easy to use. I am sure that parents will love it.
