Congratulations! Now you are a part of our writing class blog!
Some things to know:
- All the Blogger homework will have the directions and due dates right on the post. You will not get full credit if you don't both post and comment, and you will lose points for not submitting either on time.
- You are encouraged to read your classmates' posts and respond to them both while that topic is being discussed in class and after we have moved on. Polite and respectful discussion here counts as class participation and could result in bonus credit if you post often enough outside of what is required.
- You may ask a classmate what they mean if they are unclear, but this is not a place to correct others' grammar or spelling.
- You may feel free to share that you disagree with a classmate's post in your reply or discussion as long as you do it respectfully.
Your homework for today is to comment on this post with the following information:
