Welcome back to Crossroads! I hope your Holiday Break was relaxing and peaceful, and that you were able to spend some time with family and friends in harmony. Today you will create a journal entry (Weebly.com) that will help you to explain how you are going to be a better overall person this year. We all try to make resolutions and keep them, but rarely to they turn into habits that last longer than a few weeks. Please read the following article "New Year's Resolutions for Teens" and open a new Journal Entry (Weebly) describing (2-3 Sentences Each) how you might set and keep at least two new Resolutions.
Today we will be working online with pixlr.com. This is a powerful website (CLICK HERE) to help you work with and manipulate digital photographs. Please use the time today to explore this software using pictures from Google Images. We will eventually be learning to take pictures and create a photo project book for the entire school. This will be an artistic project aimed at helping you to use photography, journalism, and Mac Pages. We will be learning to use this software so you can create your own part of our Yearbook later this year. Next week we start our section on Research and MS Word.
ASSIGMENT: Find a picture online or take on (Ask Me To Use A Camera) and use PIXLR.Com to change it and make it your own. Email me your finished picture and then put a copy of it on your Weebly.Com Front Page. Make sure to label it appropriately.
I hope you enjoy this project as we start to think 2014.
