What is a blog By Steve

What is a blog ?

In St.Fiacre's in the Yr4 room for Guided Reading we are making blogs and putting them on the Internet and it is really fun.

A blog is like a journal that people can read on the Internet.

To make a blog you have to go on the computer then go on the Internet and type in blogger.com. Then you have to make a account, and if you have a iGoogle account you can make a account with your iGoogle account, or if you already have a account you can just login. To make a blog you have to write about something, you can write about whatever you want, but don’t write about stuff personal because everyone can read it. When your done you want to check that you did everything right, so to check your spelling there is a spell check button click it, and then it highlights the wrong words, click the right button on your mouse and it shows a list of related words and hopefully the right word is there and if it isn’t there you have to keep trying to you get the right word. Now that your done checking you did everything correctly you can add a picture. To add a picture you have to click the picture button up the top, then a new box comes up. Now you have to get a picture, copy the URL code of the picture you want and there is a blank line in the box paste the URL code in the blank line, then you have to choose the size of the picture, you can choose from small, medium or large. After you do that you have to choose where you want your picture to go, it can go left, center or right, and when your done that you click add picture and now you have a picture. Then you go back to your blog and you click add post and your done you made a blog!

Blogging helps me in guided reading with my typing skills, and I also learn to do more stuff on the Internet.

In one term I made three blogs the first blog I made was to Pog a character from a children’s book. The second blog I made was to Grandpa a guy from a book called Bamboozled. The third blog I made was to Andy Griffiths a guy author who writes a series of books I like called the just series. In the future I would like to do more reviews on books.
