How would you implement the use of web sites into a PK-12 classroom?

I would implement the use of websites in to a pk-12 classroom as a learning and creative tool for my students.   I would teach students how to create their own website to share and promote their ideas with others.  I would first teach them the importance of internet safety and self-branding and how it could affect their life in the future.  I would talk to them about the theme and purpose of their website, what message they want to convey with it. 

I would teach them about the 4 core principles of design and how they can use them when they create their website.   Using website as a teaching tool will allow students to be creative with all the different web tools on the net for them to learn and choose from for their site.  I would give them a list of tools they could use and have them share any tools they have found useful to them.   As the internet becomes more accessible to more people, the skills students will learn by creating their own website will help them in college and beyond.
