 * a.** I have started making my portfolio on google sites. So far, I have the layout, the home page, and the about me page completed. I have ideas for what artifacts I will put in each category but I haven't actually put them on my site yet.


 * b.** I have added the five required categories to my page, but I still am unsure about what to do the other 2 categories on. This is one of the things I asked for feedback on in my action portfolio and I haven't gotten it back yet so I am still thinking about this and waiting for some feedback.


 * c.** I think I have decided that my theme is growth along with inspirational teaching quotes. Not only do I feel like I have tremendously grown as a future educator during my years here at NC State, but I also feel that it is important for students to show growth at the end of the year. I have already incorporated inspiring quotes that involve good teaching and/or growth. My pictures are from nature, which are mainly flowers and sunrises/sunsets. Flowers blooming symbolizes growth and the sunrise transforming into the sunset at the end of the day does as well. Becoming a good teacher also involves growth, practice, and time so I feel like the teaching quotes tie in with the theme of growth as well. I have my layout established as well as the color scheme which is black, white, and different shades of pink.
