MAKING YOUR BLOGS

YOU WILL CREATE 2 BLOGS -
Your class blog will act as your portfolio and your activism blog will be for community service. After signing up for your blog, choose a template that will give you a sidebar and page tabs. Decide if you want a blog that can have a customizable header -a picture you add at the top of your blog. Check out widgets- pages, links, categories are a good start.

The year will fly by in no time. If you are involved and positive in your school life everything else just falls into place.

Miss Foreman and I would like to sponsor a new club called
