Subject: [CASL-L] Fakebook biography research

 

Hey everyone,

 

So I just finished doing a biography project with my 5th graders where they picked a person and created a profile on them using the website Fakebook. While this is a cool website and the kids liked it, I ran into a lot of technical difficulties with the site that lead to many headaches. Not saving properly, students accidentally clicking out of the page and losing all their work, etc. I am planning on doing the same assignment with them next year with a paper/poster alternative, but I am not sure I want to use the same website. Does anyone know of another website that is the same kind of idea but is less glitchy?
