=**Period 8 Wiki**= //This wiki is restricted to Period 8 class members only.//

Here is what you need to do for your wiki assignment:
 * **__Step 1__: Over to the left, you will see " New Page ".**
 * Click on that link and use your last name as the title.
 * A new page will be created.
 * Type information into this document and hit "** Save **".
 * Your name will appear over to the left alphabetically. This is //your// personal wiki page.
 * Note: Your page does not exist until you hit "** Save **".
 * **__Step 2__: Click on your name to access your personal wiki.**
 * To edit your personal wiki, click on "** Edit This Page **" at the top of the document.
 * Always hit "** Save **" or your changes will not be accepted
 * If you happen to be working on the wiki and you see a message asking if you want to see recent changes... the answer to that question is yes! As a rule of thumb... if someone took the time to save something, you want it... if it's a draft, you don't want it.
 * **__Step 3__: Use the guidelines below for your wiki assignment (20 points)**
 * Include your project title and objective (2 points)
 * Include the answer to your objective (2 points)

 * Include at least two different font colors (2 points)
 * Include at least two different font sizes (2 points)
 * Wiki is free of spelling and grammatical errors (2 points)
 * The wiki is a good learning tool (because of organization, readibility, and content) (2 points)

__Tips on Editing (Using the Buttons)__
 * If you hover your mouse over a button, it will tell you its function. Here are the ones I find most useful:
 * **"Color" and Style" Button**(The "capital A with red, green, and blue squares under it" will be your best friend)
 * Use this button to change colors, sizes, and styles
 * Use this button to change justification
 * **"Horizontal Rule" Button**
 * Add gray horizontal lines
 * **"Insert Link" Button**
 * Link any highlighted text to a website/image of your choice
 * Use the other button to remove the link
 * **"Insert Images and Files" Button**
 * Add images.
 * Another box will appear to help you edit your images.
 * **"Embed Widget" Button**
 * For those who are very comfortable with digital media. I invite you to use your creativity.
 * **"Insert Table" Button**
 * Create tables or boxes
 * **"Insert Code" Button**
 * For those who understand HTML code

I gave you two examples of a wiki that will fulfill the requirements of this assignment.
 * **"Holliday1"** fulfills the minimum requirements
 * **"Holliday2"** goes beyond the required tasks
