Possible Artifacts for your Collection

Most of your artifacts will be either photographs or Word documents. Photographs can include students engaged in learning activities, student work, classroom environment, parent meetings, staff meetings, etc. You will find the digital camera the most useful tool for gathering artifacts. You will want to learn to use your photo editor in order to size, crop, and edit photos that you take. See additional information on photo and graphic file size and editing on the next page. See the library for forms, templates, reports, etc. that might help you.
