Progression of my Google Sites - Then vs Now

Kia ora koutou, 

It's that point in our DFI cohorts where we are beginning to look at Google Sites. Week 5 of DFI focuses on Multi-modal/Multi-textual sites, and Week 6 provides an opportunity for participants to create or work on their class or subject sites. 

Often as facilitators, we encounter teachers who feel intimidated by the exemplar sites that we reference in the content of DFI, thinking that their site is inadequate or not as good as those which they are looking at on the screen. 

I think it's important to remember that each person starts somewhere, and that everyone learns and progresses at their own pace. With this in mind, I had a hunt and came across the first site that I created in my first year of teaching. It was simple, uninteresting and very 'meat and potatoes' for what my class of Year 3&4 kids needed to help with their learning. 

Check out the screenshots below to compare and contrast from where I started to where I am now! 👇
