About me - Update your blog
Walt: be cybersmart!
Instructions:
Welcome to 2017!
It is a new year, and you need a new 'about me' on your blog!
Your 'about me' blurb represents yourself, your family, and your interests for 2017! But we also need to make sure that we are being cybersmart because anyone in the world can read this!
We want our blurbs to be:
- Different to everyone else's blurb!
- Short and sharp! = Audience appeal!
- Cybersmart
We also want our blurbs to flow. We do this by:
Using a variety of sentences! Make sure you start your sentences in different ways.
