Welcome to the big bad world of blogging!

Hello everyone and welcome to our classroom blog. This blog will serve as a weekly online journal entry. It will be a way to earn points for Language Arts class but SO much more. It will be a way for you to get your voice out there! Every week there will be a discussion topic/question posted by yours truly and it will be your job to respond. Your response may be in direct relation to the topic or may be a comment about another student's response. The topics will vary but your job will remain the same. Respond to the topic in as much detail as you find necessary and in as genuine a matter as possible!

In order to receive the credit you justly deserve, when you post make sure your full name is listed.
Happy Blogging.

Blog #4 Week of Oct 1-Oct 5

Block 1/2 Only

What are you most looking forward to this school year?  Explain!  For me, I have three things. I love the American Revolution and talking about the men who risked everything for us; I also love the Civil War and Abe Lincoln. I am also excited for our Washington DC trip in 2013. That was the highlight of my year last year, so I expect it to be the same!

Blog #1 Hum 1/2 Block

Week of September 10-14

What type of "system" do you have in place for having a successful year? Do you write down your homework in the same spot every night? Do you check it off when you complete it? Do you have a homework section in your binder? Do you have a certain time/place at home for doing your homework? Does being organized all come naturally? Is it a struggle for you?

You DO NOT have to answer all the questions above, simply pick one or two and use it as a prompt. Your answer to the weekly blog should be a minimum of two sentences long!  Yes, I said minimum!

Make sure you blog by Friday morning, prior to school starting- and do not put it off to the last minute!
