Pictures:

Harper and Alyssa made our home page art with construction paper and scanned it in using Adobe Photoshop.

We used Adobe Photoshop to change our pictures on the About Us page. We used Photo Story and Windows Movie Maker to make our digital booktalks.

Book Cover images came from our school's library Destiny Catalog. Clip Art for our digital booktalks came from Microsoft Office.

Book Talks:

Some of the examples of book talks found on our Book Talk Library page were created by members of L.E.A.F, the after-school book club at Fishback Creek Public Academy. These students gave us permission to use their work. Their first names are included at the end of their book talks. All digital book talks were created by ThinkQuest team member Amber and narrated by the author of the book talk.

Creating a website:

We used Adobe DreamWeaver to build the website and we had help from the book Creating a Web Site in DreamWeaver Cs3 By: Nolan Hester
