It's what you learn after you know it all that counts. ~Attributed to Harry S. Truman

To My Students:

This blog is not just for you, but for me as well. You will need to know how to navigate the road of advancing technology for the 21st century workplace. This means it is my responsibility, as well as the school's, to prepare you to be successful not just to get a good job in the future, but to be able to think on your own, learn on your own. You have to be able to LEARN TO LEARN! This is our first step, together.

You will need to record the name of this blog in your agenda or wherever you know you can locate it for future use. http://knightsenglish9rocks.blogspot.com. NOTE: we will not always use the "my blog/your blog" format each day. I will indicate on the Promethean board when you are to get a computer and use the following procedures:

1. log onto your computer and open the internet.
2. go to my blog site to get the day's objectives and assignment.
3. in a new window, open your blog and post your response to the day's assignment.

For this first day, you will create your own blog site for the purposes of this class only. So, let's get started!

• To create your own blog for this class only, log onto www.blogger.com. Follow the steps for creating your own blog. I don't think I need to remind you that all information used and posted on your blog site should be appropriate and clean at all times. This includes the name of your blog.
• Once you've created your own blog, respond to the following survey question:

Do you feel Fort Cherry is preparing you well for being successful as a college student, and later, as a working professional in the 21st century? Explain your answer by giving an example or two from your educational experience here to prove your point. Don't forget to proofread and edit your work before you publish your post. If there isn't enough time to finish this in class today, we will complete this assignment tomorrow. I have allowed two days to complete this assignment. GOOD LUCK!

If you finish this assignment early, feel free to check out this link to Romeo and Juliet: www.romeoandjuliet.com.
