 * Step 1:** **Create your own Google Site**

What would you like your site to be about? A site for your friends to get together? A site for your classroom? A site about your favorite team, band, sport, M & M's, etc.?

Create at least a three page site of your choice


 * Step 2:** **Create your own Google Calendar**

Start a personal calendar adding at least 5 different appointments for upcoming days.

Back at your Google Site choose one of your pages, then go to Insert and choose Calendar. A popup window will appear that looks like this:
