CREATING A PENZU ACCOUNT FOR CLASS

STEP 1: FIND YOUR CLASS Go to the Students Tab on the Left Side of the Class Website and click on your Class Period.

STEP 2: CHOOSE SIGN UP On the right side of the page is a place to “Sign Up” for an account. Click on SIGN UP.

STEP 3: CREATE AN ACCOUNT When you create an account, be sure to enter your REAL NAME and also to create a password that YOU can remember. The teacher will not be responsible for lost passwords. If you forget your password after this, you will have to reset it yourself and you’ll lose time on journal writing.

STEP 4: AGREE AND SUBMIT When you have created an account, click next to “I Agree” and SUBMIT your new account.

STEP 5: CHOOSE AN AVATAR The next screen should ask for you to choose an avatar. When you have finished choosing your avatar, click NEXT 4 times.

STEP 6: CHOOSE A FONT Before you choose DONE, make sure you choose a Font for your Journal, then click DONE.

STEP 7: YOUR CLASS PERIOD You should now be looking at your Class Period, so click into it.

STEP 8: NEW ENTRY TITLE You should now be looking at a simple blank page. Just to make sure everything worked, you are going to write your first Penzu entry, so change the title to “My Milwee Experience So Far…”

STEP 9: ONE PARAGRAPH Write one paragraph describing your experience at Milwee Middle School up to this point.

STEP 10: SUBMIT FOR GRADING From now on, when you submit a journal entry for grading, you will NOT be able to go back and edit, so be careful to look over your work BEFORE clicking submit. Remember that certain journal entries will be graded and others will not, so always give your best writing.
