Blogging Baby Steps


I've been looking at several blogs for inspiration as I've contemplated starting this blog.

The goal of this blog is to share ideas, inspiration, thoughts, creativity and the joy of teaching.

This week I learned how to set up this blog with the help of the wonderful world wide web.

Today I joined my first Linky Party (after truly researching what that meant) featuring New Teacher Blogs. Thank you Teaching Blog Addict.

Here are a few other blogs that helped me get started on "Blogging Basics," or the Baby Steps as I'd like to call them.
Ladybug's Teacher Files had a great video  tutorial on linking documents right off your blog. It was a wonderful tutorial that allowed me to follow step by step while actually configuring my own settings. 
Teaching My Calling helped me figure out how to link this blog to my new Facebook page and connect my new posts to a  timeline feed. 
Fabulous Blogging, Microsoft Publisher, and Photobucket helped me create my "Grab My Button" badge so others can grab it for their own blogs. 
Thanks to all of the blogs and websites that made this first week possible.  Slowly, but surely, I'm figuring this blogging world out. My dog Bentley has even become my "Blogging Buddy".
I look forward to the upcoming weeks and the adventures in blogging.

  1. Congratulations on starting! I also highly recommend adding picmonkey and microsoft powerpoint as you grow and want to make your own photos to share. Welcome to the world of blogging. Bentley is a cutie.
