Every week a blog will be posted. From the day it posts, you have one week to put your two cents in. The blog should post on Monday and we will discuss highlights from the conversation on the following Monday.
The Rules: 1. Type your thoughts on the question. 2. You may also react or use other students' comments to enhance your thoughts. 3. Ask other students to clarify ideas. 4. A student needs at least 50 words in the blog. 5. Be polite. 6. Be school appropriate with language. 7. Texting language is acceptable but don't be silly with it (wait, it is silly). 8. Challenge each other but don't insult each other. 9. You are in control of this conversation. 10. This is about ideas and sharing them. 11. Make sure your name is at the beginning of the blog to ensure you recieve credit.

We have taught this senior English class for over seven years. Every year the class is different. Many of the lessons are the same, but it's the students who add the diversity and the original feel to the class. You get back what you put into the class.
