Here are the instructions to embed your own video into your blog, kindly provided by Kathleen at Edublogs.
- Go to your Google Drive and click on ‘New’ then ‘File Upload’
- Upload your video
- When it uploads, open it and then look for the 3 dots in the top right hand corner
- Click on ‘open in new window’
- When it opens in a new window, click on the 3 dots again and you’ll see the option to embed is there
- Copy that code and embed it as you normally would (Add media > insert embed code)
Dear year 6 teachers,
I have tried to make a account for this and it says you have to be a certain age or older: 13+. Since none of the students in year 6 are 13 or will be this year this option will not work.
Lauren,
Dear Lauren,
Well spotted, thanks for clarifying that. Shame but nothing we can do about it- unless your parents have a Google account, perhaps you could use their account?
