Welcome to the 7th Grade Literature Blog

Hello, class. This is where you will go to post comments about what you are reading at home or about some question we are discussing in class. You will be required to post on this blog every other week. I will put the dates as assignments on edline.  To post, simply read the question I have written and click on the comment link below it. Type your first name in the text box, then type your comment. When you are finished, use the pull down menu(blue arrow) and select anonymous . Then press the "Post Comment" button and complete the word verification screen. Comments won't appear until I approve them.

Less is more...

Lets try writing shorter posts. Part of the reason I have you do these blogs is to practice writing, and writing long diatribes regarding your novels is reinforcing bad habits. Get to the point in two standard paragraphs, please.

October

Remember to continue posting two paragraphs every other week on what you are reading and how you feel about it.

September 2009

I'd like you to write about what books you are reading at home. As you read, please take the time to open this website and write two paragraphs at least once every other week. The first paragraph should tell me what is happening in the book you are reading. The second should detail how you feel about the book. Your grade will be based on how often you post. By the end of the trimester, I'd expect at least 5 posts.

April Blogs

Post as usual.

March Blogs

Post as usual. Grades will be calculated at the end of the month.

February Posts

For those of you who have posted diligently this trimester, I thank you. Just a reminder: Grades on this assignment are based on the number of unique posts for the trimester.
