Red Sox, and Patriots and Blogging.....Oh My!!

What an amazing couple of days in the Boston sports realm!!!  On top of all of that excitement, as if our hearts could take much more, you will now be creating your first blog post!!  Okay so maybe writing a first blog post isn't quite as exciting as the last second touchdown in Sunday's Pat's game or Big Papi's 8th inning grand slam, but you have to admit it is kind of cool.
This first post will be a "paper" post of sorts.  You are still in the shallow end of the pool my little tadpoles.  I want to keep you safe and secure.  You will create a new Google doc and title it, "First Blog Post."  Please be sure to type your first and last name, and your ILT# on the doc itself.  You will be printing this one next week and turning it in to me.  This post is your introduction to your readers.  There is a packet of resources next to each of your workstations.  You will need to take a few minutes to read through this packet. Everything you need to create your first blog post is in this packet.  This first post should take all of this class if you do it correctly. Don't rush!  Please make sure you take the time to do it correctly.  There is a rubric on the last page of this packet.  Be sure to read it as well. Have some fun and show us your voice in this post. You may not win the World Series or the Superbowl with this blog post, but it could win you the honor of "Student Blog of the Week!"
