Creating Your First Post

Your First Post

Your first post will likely be the most difficult one.  Once you've posted the first time, you'll likely find   it much easier the second time.   In the menu bar above, you'll see a number of icons allowing you to do things like add photos, video and/or hyperlinks to your posts.

If this is your first experience with blogs, you might want to check out  the following "Blogs in Plain English" Youtube clip:   What is a blog?

Another introductory site for ELL teachers is Blogging for English Language Learners.

Finally, to check out a variety of ELL related blogs, visit the site Best ELL Blogs.



Of course, you can make your Blog look much more appealing by choosing a theme, choosing a lay-out and adding images or other multi-media to your blog.

To add a photo, click on the insert image file from the task bar above and follow the instructions.  You must have an image file (.jpg or .png) ready to upload.   Here is a simple mugshot.
