Blogging for English Class

Through the rest of the semester (I'm hoping) we will be posting our thoughts and writings to blogs.  Your job in the next few days is to create your blog and your first post will be explaining the subject and perspective you are writing about.

You can do a quick summary of what you are planning your story to be about if you'd like as well.

Making a blog is VERY easy, the most confusing part is creating the list of blogs of your fellow classmates (we'll be doing that in class).

Here are the blog directions:
1. Go to Google
2. At the top, click on "More" then "Blogger"
3. using your school email, create a blog.  Your URL needs to be your first name and last initial and the class (English 9). Your title needs to be your name and something creative.
4. Email your URL to me at tiffany.johnson@gk12.net and write the address up on the board
5. I will create a list of links to blogs on this page, you need to create one on your page as well.
6. You will post your first person writing on that page as well as other writing through the semester.
