Blogging Again

Please take a look at the agenda on the boards as those items are my expectations for the day.  I have left a packet of resources on each of your workstations.  Be sure to use them and leave them for my next class.  Use the outline below to guide your through today's class:

  1. Using your apps launcher, sign in to Google Drive.
  2. Create a "new" document and title it. (ie; new blog post, Feb blog post, etc.)
  3. Write your post.  It doesn't have to be school related, but does have to be school appropriate.   Think about your blog title.  Your post should match your title.  You may use Google and the Internet to find any information you will need for your post.  Be sure to cite any sources you use.
  4. Once you have finished this draft, ask a classmate to "peer edit" your post.
  5. Make necessary corrections to your post based on your classmate's suggestions.
  6. Find, save (to your pdrive) and cite (paste the URL on your doc) an image for your post.  There is a resource in your packet reviewing the process for finding and saving images.  Be sure to use the advanced search filter!!!
  7. You will then open Blogger and paste your new post on your blog.  There is a resource in your packet which shows you how to open Blogger and create a new post.  Be sure to use it!!!
  8. You will then take one last look at your blog using the "Blog Post Checklist" which is the first page of your resource packet.  
  9. If you are comfortable; hit that "Publish" button.  Be sure you have included a Post Title and Labels!!
  10. If you are not comfortable, hit the "Save" button and I will double check it next class.
This process should take you the entire class.  You must get this post done in this one class.  If you have any time left before the end of class, please work on your blog design.  You may not listen to music, play games (including fish on your blog) or watch videos!!!
