Hello Indian Springs Elementary Students
This assignment is for your to share a book that you have read this year. I want you to tell about the book and what you liked about it or what you didn't like about it. Tell about the characters and what makes each character interesting. Tell us about the setting and where the story takes place. Explain the plot and what makes it exciting to you.
Don't give too much of the story away, but tell us whether you would recommend this story to a friend. If so why or why not?
After you have posted your comment, then read some of the other student's comments and respond to them.
Keep in mind a few things to think about when you are writing your blog.
- First, this is a student blog. As teachers we expect students to use full sentences and correct punctuation.
- Second, think about the comments that you are going to make. If your comment is about a favorite book, tell us why your book is your favorite. Use full paragraphs to get your point across.
- Third, when you respond to another person’s comments, remember to be positive and give them positive reaction to their comments. This is not a social networking site that you can use to say bad things about each other.
- Last, The purpose of this activity is to help you to practice your writing skills as well as give you opportunities to discuss things that you have been learning in class. Even though this can be a fun activity, it still has a learning purpose. Please remember that when you are writing your comments.
- Have fun!
