This site was constructed as a Technology Integrated Project for the Fayette County School Corporation, Connersville, Indiana. It addresses the following Indiana Standards 2000 for English:

• 9.1.3: Use knowledge of Greek, Roman, and Norse mythology to understand the origin and meaning of new words.
• 9.6.3: Produce legible work that shows accurate spelling and correct use of the conventions of punctuation and capitalization.
• 10.1.3: Use knowledge of Greek, Roman, and Norse mythology to understand the origin and meaning of new words.
• 10.2.3: Demonstrate use of sophisticated technology by following technical directions.
• 10.6.3: Produce legible work that shows accurate spelling and correct use of the conventions of punctuation and capitalization.

To the students, colleagues, and friends -- you know who you are! -- who debugged this project and made helpful suggestions, many thanks.

This site was launched October 29, 2000. I hope it will be a useful educational tool. Please let me know of any bugs, rants, or raves: Carla Beard.
