== Welcome to my 6th-8th Grade Technology Portfolio. This is a place that I will upload my technology projects, and reflect on my learning with technology.My favorite thing about working on the computer is just getting to be on a computer. I like it better than writing. My favorit subject in school is gym because you have to just be there and participate and you will get a good grade. When I grow up I want to go to college and get a degree and make alot of money. I'm not quite sure what I want to be yet though. ==
