Let the Writings Begin!


The main purpose for creating your blog is to improve your writing. You will write the first 20 minutes of class each day before beginning the class assignment. Writing is just like a sport. The more you practice, the better you get. And just as in any sport there are rules to follow. Here are the rules:

Title your post. This title should relate to the topic.

Use correct spelling and grammar. This includes using paragraphs. You are not texting, everything you write needs to be school appropriate. Your teachers, your classmates and whoever stumbles on your blog will read what you write.

You need to write a minimum of 15 lines.

You can include images, humor, creativity and please use some figurative language.(try this, click on each word to expand) You will be given a weekly grade based on the number of lines you write. I will give bonus points for use of vocabulary from Ms. Ladd’s class, great images or spectacular creativity.
