Your password is 8N2MAT.  When you have loggd in for the first time you may want to change that. 

You homework is 2 things. 

1.  Get the site looking good, pick a good theme and write an introduction post, then transfer as much of the other stuff as possible. 

2.  Research uses of algrbra in the real world.  What are equations for and where are they used.  Include images, examples, videos, games…..
