You’ve made it!
Posted by MsMichetti on 20th November 2008
Beginnings are tough – but you’ve made it this far, so let’s keep going. Starting a blog can be intimidating for some, liberating for others. Everything you say will be “out there.” Is that thought scary or exciting to you? (Add your reply in a comment if you wish.)
In setting up your blogs we will guide you to look at some other blogs here and there, so you can get some ideas about:
- What this blog stuff is all about, anyway
- How to blog (and the different ways to do it)
- How other people blog — what works and what doesn’t
But first – a real beginning: Your first post! In your blog, please respond to the following:
Are there any holidays that, in your experience, are connected with carefree fun and merry-making? What are they? Write about a holiday, or a time, when you were inordinately silly.
In your published response, please:
- Give your post a unique title (you want people to read it!).
- Tag your response with something that will make it identifiable to those who might search for it. (e.g., merry-making, silliness, holiday)
- Create a category for English A 8 and call it “EngA08″ (without the quotation marks) and put this post in your EngA08 category.
- Include a photo, if possible! :) Images always make the stories come more alive. If you are going to use a photo from the internet, please speak to your teacher (Mr. Powell, Mr. Tangey, or Ms. Michetti) first.
