Essential Question: How do I create an effective online platform to showcase class projects and work in progress? 

Agenda: 
1. ChromeBook setup. Find instructions how to set up your account here. 

2. HOPE Squad nominations

3. In your Drive, open up a new document, title it [YOUR NAME] About Me and use the three answers you wrote on the inside of your name tag to write a detailed description of yourself for your portfolio. 

4. Go to weebly.com and sign up with your Google account. 

5. Create an online portfolio following these instructions. 
Here is an example site. Your site has to have these sections:

Remember to hit "Publish" once you have created and customized your website. 

6. Copy the link to your website [yourname].weebly.com into this form.
