Kay Balagtas' Electronic Portfolio


 * Progress Log**

__Status Report #1: October 22, 2010__ a. In the EP workshop today, I have compiled an annotated list of my completed History and English classes I am currently in the process of creating my portfolio, in terms of related artifacts that can relay to each category. b. The two additional categories that will best represent my identity as a beginning middles grades ELA / SS teacher include multicultural awareness and teaching exceptional students. I feel like these topics can be overlooked, so I it is important to c. Theme: THE SOUND OF MUSIC : ) I have included quotes from the movie and pictures relating to it, under each page.

__Status Report #2: October 29, 2010__ Today, computers are not my friend. The making of my ePortfolio has been progressing smoothly, UNTIL I realized that one of my pages I had created was missing on the sidebar menu. It happened to be hiding as a subpage under my Homepage, and TJ and I basically took an hour to fix the problem- which was to ultimately delete my Homepage and start from scratch. : (

__November 5, 2010__: Language-Focused Microteaching Day! : )

__Status Report #3: November 12, 2010__ I was able to place most of my artifacts in my portfolio today. I have yet to complete my annotations for each of my artifacts.

What I like best about my portfolio is that it showcases my personality - I incorporated two different things that I am passionate about, teaching and working with children, and the sound of music. I like that I was able to bridge the song lyrics from the movie with my artifacts in that category. Something that I need to work on is embedding my documents, as opposed to links that lead to other attachments.
