Your own blog


Our second task is to create a blog. Visit Blogger and create your own blog: choose your favourite look and layout! Remember to add links to your mates' blogs!

Now, you must start writing your first posts. To begin with, try to adjust your ideas and your text to your English level; keep it simple and clear, although you should take some risk on every post: a new word, a new expression can work! Then, writing is not a linear task, but a cycle: think, draft, edit, draft, edit,...

Your blog must include three posts, at least: your own personal introduction (including a description of yourself - practise here!!), a problem or issue that worries you and a plan to solve it. By the way, posts do not include just text, they also have images, videos and links; so, do not forget to include these complements in yout post. Here you can find two different examples:




Finally, comments are also an important element of the blogosphere. So, pay a visit to your mates' blogs and write comments on their posts. At least one comment in each blog is expected from you.

The deadline to finish your blog is November 30th.

Notice: Please, take your time but be honest! Don't use automatic translators (which produce very poor texts, sometimes with plenty of mistakes). You can use dictionaries or other resources, but make the effort of writing it yourself.

This is the list of blogs you made:
Good luck!
