This is the sample paragraph I am writing to help fifth grade understand the steps for the blog post on why I will never smoke.

Embed a small image of your poster created in MS Word for health and technology. (Links to small and full-size images of your poster are available in the Google Doc linked on the grade 5 technology schoolnotes page.) Choose right or left alignment for your image with a space of 6 pixels (hspace and vspace) to separate it from the text.

 Explain the message you are trying to share in your poster. Then tell  about the things that made an impression on on you in health class discussions about smoking and tobacco products. Mention at least two side effects you learned about by watching the videos in class. If you have any statistics to share on smoking issues you may do that , but also provide a link to the source of information on the topic. You goal is to convince anyone who visits your blog of the importance of staying healthy when they see your poster and the information you share. Make your image a hyperlink to the full-sized poster. Tell your readers they can click on the image to see the poster full sized. If you want to be convincing and be taken seriously, be sure to have accurate information, correct spelling, and interesting sentences that are grammatically correct. You need a minimum of six complete sentences for this assignment.

After studying this topic I hope you will never be a smoker or user of tobacco products. If any of your classmates or family members ever choose to smoke, please use what you have learned  to talk them out of it.
