Week 3 - Responding and Posting

Today, you should essentially have your blog ready to go and should be moving steadily forward. If not, magistra may call you up with more specific instructions.

At this point, it is expected that you will complete the work each Friday it is assigned AND start to clean up your site. I will post brief suggestions for you, but it is up to you to ask questions, research things, and figure things out on your own - as you would with any creative project.

For today, you must:


  1. Check this list of blogs. If your blog is highlighted.... something is wrong with your blog. Check in with magistra ASAP. 
  2. Go to your own blog and look at the comments you've received. Respond to each one in Latin, answering their question(s) about you. 
  3. Then, post a new post on your blog. Use Prompt 3. You may wish to look at:
    * The Discipulus Illustris questions (which includes a NEW question!!!)
    * Magistra's sample blog post about her favourite actress. (which makes use of the new question)
After you've finished this, you MUST work on one of the following:
  • make up yesterday's assessment if you weren't here.
  • finish yesterday's assessment if you didn't finish.
  • work on the look of your blog (suggestions below)
If you've finished all this, you may work on something else. 

This week's suggestions for your blog:

  • Remove any superfluous images from your site that were not added by you. 
  • Remove any extra pages and buttons on your site. 
  • Take your first blog post, refine it, and make an "about me" page where it will permanently live. 
Remember: do not hesitate to ask questions if you run into trouble! That being said, make sure you read all the instructions, follow them, and look at the pages in front of you first. :)
