I created a new newsletter template to use with my class this year. I do not have a class, but if you would like to use this one, feel free! You just would need to change the picture, names, and contact information at the top and the bottom. For weeks where you have a lot to say, use the two-pager. For weeks when you don't have much to say, use just the front page.

Other newsletter templates can be found in this post. http://mtbethel.blogs.com/appleyard/2005/09/newsletter_temp.html
To use a template, click on the link. Go to FILE -> SAVE AS. Save it to your computer. Open it up. Edit it from your computer. Don't edit directly from the web....you are better off working off of the saved file! Remember where you saved it. The next time you want to edit it, open it up. When you are done, hit FILE -> SAVE AS a nd give it a new name. Naming the newsletter something like "Newsletter September 5" or "Newsletter October 7" is always a good idea!
- To upload your newsletter to the blog, open up a new post.
- Give it a title like: "Newsletter, Week of September 3rd."
- Type in a disclaimer like, "Below you will find all of the important news for the week."
- Look for the button that looks like a piece of paper with an arrow next to it. (It's just southwest of the COMPOSE POST tab. If you hover over it with your mouse arrow it will say "INSERT FILE."
- In the CHOOSE A FILE box, hit BROWSE to look for your newsletter. You should have named it with the date. Find the newsletter. Hit OPEN. Hit INSERT FILE.
- Look at the publishing dots. When they stop, you should see Download (and then your file name) in the post body. It will be underlined showing that it is a link.
- Scroll down.
- Comments should be NONE.
- SAVE.
