This paper details the integration of technology tools into a third-grade Web-based literacy project. The project included 13 students at the beginning of the school year possessing a wide range of technology exposure and reading experience levels. The students were provided an opportunity to work in small groups-reading works by a selected children's author, researching biographical data and exploring the writer's style, and using of conventions of literary works such as characterization, plot, and setting. Included in the project were authentic purposes for writing; research on the Web and traditional sources; cooperative and collaborative learning opportunities; and planning, designing, and creating finished products in a multimedia presentation.
