Instructions for Creating Your Writing
Web Page!
You will need to create a new page that will be
your writing page. The purpose of the page is to list on your web site
the short stories, poems, and essays, research papers and other writings
that you wrote or will be writing.You will also need to put a short description
of what your wrote or what the assignment was.
- You will need to create a new page that will
be your writing page. To do that, open Macromedia Dreamweaver and type
the title at the top of a new page. The title should be something like
What I Am Writing or My Writing List
NOTE: When you open Dreamweaver it automatically creates a new blank
page. If you don't see a blank web page, go to File
at the top, then click on New.
- Once you have typed the title, SAVE THE FILE
IN YOUR NAMED DIRECTORY ON YOUR "H" DRIVE
RIGHT AWAY BEFORE YOU DO ANY MORE WORK ON IT. Please remember the File
Naming Rules, all lower case letters and no spaces.
- Begin listing the essays, poems, reports, research
papers and other things that you have written. We will be making a link
to the Writing page from your home web page.
- After you make the list works that you have
writen, write a paragraph about each work that you have written. The
paragraph should include a description of what the work is, ie. this
is an essay I wrote for my humanities class etc. , or if it's a short
story or poem, give a description of what the story is about.
- When you finish writing a paragraph about each
work, please create a link to the web file from your index.html page.
If you need help on how to make a link, please raise your hand for help
or ask a classmate for help.
- ADVANCED TASK: If you want to try an advanced
web development task, I would suggest adding a TABLE to you web page
and arranging your information about your Writings using a table. To
add a table to your web page, you will need to click on the web link
below and follow the directions on that page.

- ADVANCED TASK: Once you have finished that,
talk with Mr. Lamothe about scanning in your report cover or an illustration
you did to go with your poem or short story.

Picture
- ADVANCED TASK: Add Thumbnails to your Writings
Page for each of the writings that you did. See the instructions for
Creating Thumbnails.
