Create Your Blog

Each of you will create your own blog. During this month, you will use this space to publish your work and to comment on the work of your peers.

I hope you enjoy learning to use your blog. Remember, your blog is your workspace. Use colors, pictures and backgrounds that you like--make it you!

Do any of you already have your own blog? If so, you might still want to make one just for this class. If not, don't worry--we'll go through the steps together right now.

Step 1: Go to blogger.com. You might want to open a new browser window.

Step 2: Go "crear un blog."

Step 3: Follow the steps on the website to create your blog. You will need to register, choose a blog name and design.

Step 4: Decorate. Take a couple minutes to play with your blog. (Note: the phrase 'couple minutes' does not mean toda la clase).

Step 5: Post an entry. Go to "crear un entrada." Write a sentence or two (Hello! This is my blog!) Go to "Vista previa" to see how it will look. If you like it, click on "publicar entrada." Congratulations, you just made your first blog entry!

Step 6: Leave a comment. After you have created your blog, leave a comment right here on this blog entry. In your comment, include the name of your blog. That way I will be able to add a link on the sidebar to all of your blogs.

Example Comment: Hey classmates! This is Annalena. My blog is: annalena.blogspot.com. I already put up my
post, so come check it out! I'm looking forward to working with your all. Peace!
