1. Create a blog with Blogger.com. If you are not sure how to do
this, follow the instructions found on the back of this sheet.
2. Once your blog is created, email me the link to your blog. I will create
a blog roll on the class blog so others can access yours.
3. Create a post and title it “Introduction”. Then write an
introduction to your classmates so they can get to know you better. Feel free
