Purpose of this website

I have created this website as a tool for my students to use during class. I also want to give them a place to go when they are using the Internet at home or in other classes. This website is also a resource tool for my fellow teachers. Comments and questions are always welcome and appreciated. E-mail me at mrsmcelwee@mrsmcelwee.com
