House Keeping

A few thing:

First of all, I think that we can just plan week by week. Let's not lock in. Flexibility is better.

Secondly, you should invite whoever you would like to watch the blog. Mrs. Spearman, Mom, Dad, whoever. They might learn something too. They may also have ideas different from mine so you can learn even more. People commenting will help you learn more.

Blogging:

There are two things I want you to be aware of other than typing and pictures. The first thing is Labels. When you are creating a post you will see a place where you can type them in by category. Label every post with your name MOLLY and anything else: artists' names, if it a response or questions, whatever you'd like. Lastly, if you are responding with pictures I would like you to include them in the blog text. You can copy in a link or use a saved picture from your computer. If you want to reference text or a web page use the link button. Just type hat you want, highlight it then click the little link button. It is at the top in the tool bar to the right or the text colors. It looks like a green bull head with white horns.

Okay, I just thought of one more idea. Depending on your time I think this could be excellent. Lets say an assignment every week. One art historical and one contemporary. We both have to do each assignment. So for the history part I will give you things to research and study. The other week we both have to link an article about contemporary art. Anything. Any genre. This will grow as we go. We might need more time between assignments. I might have you identify certain things in the off week assignment. We'll see!

That's it, here come your first assignment.
