Important first tasks to get organised

Important first tasks:

1) You need a gmail account. If you already have one you can use that but if you don't you need to create one. Make sure your name and password are easy for you to remember. If you are finding it hard to find a good name, add 'sfp' to the end of your name. (e.g. joesmithsfp@gmail.com)

2) Send an email to banwellsfp@gmail.com with your name and class as the subject. This is to help me make a class email list for English. Please do this before the end of the lesson :)

3) Download google drive to your computer (using your new gmail account)

Organisation of English folder on computer

Welcome to the Year 8 English Blog

On here you will find links to the activities that we are doing in class as well as other links that will be useful for you this year. The blog will be a very important tool for us this year.

Make sure that you are checking the blog regularly (even when we do not have class!), as important information will be put on here (eg. about assessments).
