Happy Monday everyone!
I read all of your blog entries from last week. Now that we are well into understanding how a blog works, I need to reiterate/set a few ground rules.
#1: To receive credit for a blog post, it needs to be a well-developed piece of writing. I.E. a sentence or two will NOT work! Spend some time thinking about what you want to discuss. Ask your audience questions! Question yourself and what you got out of an experience!
#2: Please be smart about what you post on here. I know it is YOUR blog, but it is still a school requirement. If I find anything to be offensive, I will ask you to take it down and you will get zero credit for your blog that week.
#3: Read other people's blogs. Not just your friends' blogs, but any blog you can get ahold of! You can get great ideas for blogs from others. Starting next week, I will require that you start commenting on your peers' blogs. So you might as well start now.
FOR YOUR BLOG THIS WEEK, YOU HAVE TWO OPTIONS:
1. It's starting to cool off (FINALLY!). Have a blog post about fall. Some examples may be: describe your favorite event of fall, write a descriptive scene during fall, why is fall your favorite/least favorite time of the year, etc. Be creative with this if you would like.
2. Tomorrow marks 11 years since 9/11. Talk about it. Examples: Where were you 11 years ago?, What does 9/11 mean today, What do you think about the war?,
Let's make these posts the strongest posts of the year so far!
Happy Writing!
