Well, here we go! Your first assignment is to send me an e-mail with YOUR NAME in the subject line.
This will allow me to invite you to become a member of this blog.

Be sure to read the post below and discuss blogging with your parents.
This is extremely important because I will be sending home a blog
permission slip within the next few days. No signature=no blogging.

Remember, initials only! We'll talk about appropriate posting
later--right now, send me those e-mails!

Welcome to your first week of school! I look forward to wrapping up my day with this class.

This is a blog, which is like an online diary. The difference is that anyone in the world can read this, but only you can leave comments (after you've been invited by me through the site.) On most blogs, anyone can leave comments, but because this is a school project, we're going to keep it pretty tight-knit.

Here is a link to introduce you to blogs and how they work in education. Please take a moment to read some of the pages with a parent. The best way for us to blog is to be open and honest in our communication so we can all gain the most from this experience.

Let's have a wonderful year together! :)
