Lesson 1: Welcome to Fr'Bloggin'!

Dear Wonderful 9th Graders,

Welcome to the beginning of the second half of the year! And welcome to your new unit of study entitled, "Fr'Bloggin'." That's right, fr'bloggin'. Say it out loud. It's fun.

In this two week long unit we will be studying frogs and blogging. The purpose of studying frogs is severalfold:

• Many students mentioned that they wanted to dissect frogs
• Many students mentioned that they wanted more technology in class
• Frogs give us an awesome entry point into ecosystems and human impact on the environment
• Blogs give us an awesome way to publish your writing and share it with the world

In today's lesson you will set up your blog and write your first entry. Please follow these instructions to get started.

Enjoy!

David and the 9th Grade Instructional Team
