Welcome to Biology 12!
You are creating a blog in this class for a few reasons. We can use our blogs as an online portfolio of assignments, a way to track your progress throughout the semester, a place to post pictures, and resources about the topics we are learning about, and online collaboration between students in the class. I want you to follow each other and read other peoples posts in the class.
To get started, you need a gmail account. Along the top bar, under MORE, you will find Blogger, where you can easily start your new blog using your gmail account as a login.
Please title your blog with your name (first or last) or something other than Biology 12....
Make the actual web address and send me an email with that URL so that I can follow you. After that, once you publish anything, it will be a part of my reading list so I can see it.
Add this blog (phillipsbiology.blogspot.com)to your reading list so that you can easily see any of my posts. Also, add a few classmates to your reading list so that their blog posts become part of your reading list.
My email address is: phillips_k@surreyschools.ca
Once your blog is set up, I would like you to make a post -
Why did you take biology this year?
What are you most excited to learn about?
Come up with one question about the human body that you want to have answered this year.
Remember this is a public forum & a chance for you to create a positive digital footprint - I am hoping that your parents become involved in looking at your blog a few times to see what you are up to in Biology.
Happy blogging!
