Day 1:
Welcome to life on the Oregon Trail!
Once you have taken on a new identity as an Oregon Trail pioneer, set up your project blog where all of the activities throughout the journey will be posted. You can do this by going to http://www.blogger.com/. To make a blog, sign in with your G-mail account information that we have used in class before. The title of your blog should be Oregon Trail followed by your name (Oregon Trail by Ashley Williams). Refer to the example blog to see how your project should be set up on your blog and to answer any questions you have http://oregontrailexample.blogspot.com/.
Make a new blog post titled Identity. Copy and paste your new identity from the Welcome page of this blog. You can copy the text by pressing 'ctrl' and 'c'. To paste the text into your blog post, press 'ctrl' and 'v'. Question: Why did you pick this identity?
