6th: To start class we will be looking over your homework and then talking about local and network hard drives as well as save versus save as.  Don't forget we have a quiz on Wednesday.  The study guide is available on the web so you can access it from home on the class website.

Before we get started, you will need to take out your homework and also write in your agenda to study for Wednesday's quiz.

7th:  Today in class we will be completing a round robin activity where everyone will get a chance to see everyone else's web.  It will be fast-paced and exciting but the idea is really to get more feedback and ideas from your classmates.  I'm sure you've heard the expression that two heads are better than one...so how about twenty something heads?  I will quickly explain what we are doing and then we will get underway.

8th:  I'm going to be in a meeting today during class so you have a sub (look up front) and you will be reading an article written by David Pogue of the New York Times.  You may remember him from his blog Pogue's Posts.  The title of the article is "Text Generation Gap: UR 2 Old (JK)" and it takes a look at how communication has changed in recent years and how it has affected families and the way they interact.  When you are finished reading the article if there is still time left you can check out this very comprehensive list of text message abbreviations.  Who knows...maybe you will learn something new today after all?

We are almost ready to start blogging!!!  If you do not have an e-mail address please leave me a note on my desk or send me an e-mail through Edline so we can talk about how you can get one in order to create a Blogger account online.  Please note, that those students who do not have an e-mail account will have an alternate assignment.
