There are many tools you can use that will help you write your blog post neater. You can add many links including pictures, videos, and even music.
To upload any music, pictures, or videos, bring the mouse up and look for “Add Media”. When you see “Add Media” click on it. It should bring to a page that can allow you to make your own gallery for pictures (a gallery is where all your pictures are stored) and make your own separate video or audio playlists (a playlist is a list in where all your videos and audio are located).
Once you’re completely done with your assignment, go down to categories and click on the box next to ” 9:30 AM Class” (a check should appear once you clicked the box).
