Welcome to my literacy portfolio web site!
This home page is
created for teachers and future teachers who are interested in portfolios. I will help you become familiar with
the portfolio system, and help guide you toward the creation and management of a student literacy portfolio for your elementary
school classroom. Here you will be able to access ideas and get tips you can work with. This website was created
as a starting point, and by using your own creativity you can put your own personal spin on the creation of a portfolio
that fits perfectly into your classroom. This website will help have your portfolio have its own special touches
and become something personal, to you, that will work with your unique style and goal.

Since portfolios have many definitions it is important to know that this is not the only way to create a portfolio
system for your classroom. After researching different kinds of portfolio systems I found many aspects from all kinds
of portfolios. I am including the areas I liked the most and feel are most important for students and teachers.
Since this is my opinion of what I feel the most important aspects of different
kinds of portfolios are, you may disagree with me. This is website is used to give you some insight into the portfolio
system. You can refer here when creating your own portfolio to get tips and help manage the portfolios in your classroom.
According to Manning and Manning in the article Managing Literacy Portfolios, while teachers may
be finding themselves "going crazy, they've never felt so good about the assessment and evaluation procedures in their classroom."
Which lets you know portfolios are liked by many teachers, and it has been found in that article that teachers are having
the most trouble "finding the time to do everything." Hopefully this website will give some pointers to help make the
process less stressful.
