Product Description
From School Library Journal
Gr 3-8-This simple guide is divided into two sections. Wigglebits first provides the basic commands used in writing HTML. These commands consist of five pieces of a Web page-files, words, pictures, colors, and links-with step-by-step instructions that allow readers to follow along and create a Web page using either a Mac or a PC. The second section shows the ease of using an HTML editor. Common terminology and buttons as well as steps are explained. Other topics touched on include push and pull communications, Web addresses, search engines, use of tags, bandwidth and pixels, Internet standards, and instructions for creating animation. Straightforward directions make the process easy to follow yet some unnecessary explanations may be disconcerting to those who have never been exposed to HTML code. Overall, there is no consistency to the organization.-Susan Shaver, Hemingford Public Schools, NE

Teachers and their students are provided with a hands-on project with "user friendly" and accessible instruction that covers every aspect (HTML, web editors, standards, bandwidth, search engine placement, animation, etc.) of building a school website. If you are inexperienced with developing and operating a website for your class or school, then begin by a careful reading of Wanda Wigglebits' Building A School Web Site!

Lessons in how to build a page at school,
By
This review is from: Building a School Web Site: A Hands-On Project for Teachers and Kids (Paperback)
Children are amazing when learning new things in general and computers in particular. My three elementary school children recently were rewarded with their own computer and they now do routine typing and organization for my business. Children also enjoy building things and seeing how they work. One of the most fascinating things they can now explore are web pages. In this book, children are taken through a series of steps illustrating the basic ideas behind the construction of a web page. The lessons are well written and can easily be followed by children in fourth grade or higher.The title may be a bit misleading, in that it is not a set of instructions demonstrating how to build a web page for a school, but lessons in how to build a page at school. However, the lessons will keep the interest of the child as they learn the basics of web pages from a teacher who knows how to relate to the young, impressionable mind. My children enjoyed it.
