I really liked how you had more than one rubrics for the students. I also enjoyed the Powerpoint presentation and the video link you had. I would've linked to see a more grabbing home page, but I am a primary teacher so that might be the reason. Nice job.
I really loved your introduction on the home page. I think that the paragraph about the sandbox and the building of the castle was very inspirational. I saw the directions in the lesson plan however, I would've liked to see a different link with simple step by step directions for the students. Overall I think you did a great job.
