Welcome to Deb's BlogSpot!

I look forward to working with you this year in my Extended Class. Please let me know if you need any assistance in making your journal entries online.

Here's how to get started ~

Go to www.blogger.com/start

To create a blog requires that you click the "create your blog now" arrow.

On the page that comes up you must type your email address twice, enter a password twice, type the name you want signed to your posts, type a word you see on the screen in front of you and hit continue.

You will then enter a title and an address for your blog. Be creative with your title.

Then you will choose a format. You can change it later so don't get too hung up on this step.

Once you've selected a format, you will be taken to a page that lets you work on your blog. It allows you to create and edit posts (blog entries), and make changes to your settings and layout.

Once you're all set up, invite Deb at drowejarrett@gmail.com to read and respond to your entries. From there, it's up to you to get the most out of this technology.

Post at least four times a week. Good Luck!!
