PUT FIRST THINGS FIRST- Schedule on a calendar the various mini due dates for the Glog. Schedule in the BIG ROCKS. (Plan time with your family, to read, to exercise, to meditate, etc.) BEGIN WITH THE END IN MIND and make goals. Do you want to earn 4's and 5's? What will you have to do? Will you need to plan with someone to take you to the public library? What obstacles should you plan for? When will you need to be finished in order for your peers to evaluate your Glog and give you honest feedback? Have you viewed some of the BEST Glogs so that you have an idea of what a quality project looks like?
If you need HELP WITH THE GLOG click on the Soc. Studies tab. Scroll down past the music videos. You will find a list of video tutorials for how to add various features to a Glog. Start there. If you watch the tutorials and still need help, ask me.
