Frequently I will leave writing assignments and other discussion prompts on our class blog. I will also leave links to appropriate informational websites that enhance student understanding of the topics we are studying. Students will check this blog and leave comments, and then on your own blogs, you will write appropriate posts. The key component of blogging is that students know they have a real audience. You will be reading each other’s writing, leaving comments, and collaborating on projects. I will also be monitoring your blogs and leaving comments, as can parents at any time.
