New Posts

Hi everyone,
Most of you still don't have any posts on your blogs! Remember you need to post your rewrite of your Pretest tonight! If you don't know how to do it, all you need to do is click on "New Post" in the top right corner of your blog. Type in your assignment and then click on Publish Post in the bottom left corner. That's it! Once you have a post on your blog, other people can comment on your blog. Also remember to add some information to your profile on your Dashboard.
Thanks,
Vibrance

Intro

Greetings Students!

I hope you will have fun sharing your thoughts and writings on your blogs!

The first thing you need to do is create your own blog, and then send me your website.Your first blog assignment is to introduce yourself to your classmates and tell us some interesting things about you. :)

Here's an example:

Some Fun Facts about Me

Hi, my name is Vibrance, which means "full of life". I was born in Seattle, WA in 1976. I have lived in Washington for most of my life. I have had some wonderful travels to other countries: Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Canada, and India. I lived in Costa Rica for a year and taught EFL there. I also lived in California for 5 months. I hope to travel to many more countries in my life. I speak Spanish and I'm learning Hindi and Telugu. In the past I've also studied Japanese and Sign Language, but I don't remember very much. I'm married to a man from India. We live north of Seattle in Bothell. We bought a wonderful home in June of 2008. In my free time, I like to play sports, do crafts, play games, and watch movies. My favorite sports are tennis, badminton, racquetball, and ping-pong. I have a BA from Eastern Washington University and a Master's from the University of Washington. I enjoy meeting my students from all over the world.
