Great job Yesterday Class,
Now that we have got everyone signed up and you are all following me, I want you to do two things.

First, leave me a comment.by typing a message into the "Post a Message" box and then clicking on the "Publish" button. Don't forget to sign your posts.

Secondly, I want you to set up your first posts. Give some background information about yourself. What you like to do for fun. The best book you ever read and anything else you can think of.

I would also like for you to add a picture of something that you wrote about yourself. To do this first locate a picture you like on Google and save it to the picture file of the computer.Next, click on the picture icon that is on the tool bar, when you are writing your blog. Click "Choose Files." Then, locate your picture in your picture file. Next, click "Apply selected,". make sure that your picture has a blue frame around it.  That is all that there is to it.

Finally reread your post make sure it is spelled correctly and has correct caps. and punctuation. then click "Publish."

Instructions for your Blogs

Hi all,
I decided that we will all read Hunger Games. That way it will be easier for us to comment on each others Blogs. While you are reading Hunger Games, use the post-its that I give you to mark the parts of the story that you would like to add to your Blog. Choose one of the Reader's Response Prompts to begin your writing. Summarize what you read, then use the prompt to make a connection or to add to your blog.

Welcome To Blogging With Mrs. Murphy

Hi Class,

I spent some time getting this together this weekend and spent some time learning how things work so that when you have questions, I can help with an answer.
