Hello 2nd Hour and Welcome to your class blog!! We will use this blog for many purposes in this class. Our main purpose will be to post journal articles about technonolgy or the business world. My goal is to do one journal a week. The blog will be posted on Monday and you have until the following Friday to complete the questions on the blog by leaving a comment.
Before we begin blogging there are a few ground rules to be set!
1. All posts, must use appropriate school language and completed in paragraph form. When you post, you should be using complete sentences with proper grammar and spelling. NO: U, R, UR, i, CUZ, etc.
2. When Posting a comment, you may agree or disagree with another students comment. However, you must state why you feel that way and must do it in a manner that is polite and non-judgmental. The comments need to be non-personal and refrain from sarcasm and put-downs.
3. You must comment on every article, it is an assignment.
4. You must address the topics and questions posted on the blog. You cannot simply write, “I agree.”
Your first assignment: Your job today will be to introduce yourself. Provide some background information, discuss things you enjoy doing, your family, and your future plans. Then answer the following Questions:
1. What do you already know about blogging?
2. Have you ever used/hosted a blog?

I know quite a bit about blogs, since I teach them in school. I use them for teaching, professional development, and to keep in touch with my friends.
Yes, I have used many blogs. I use them everyday in school.
If I were to start a new blog it would be to post pictures of my daughter so that my family that lives out of state could see her and how she’s growing.

My name is Jacob and I am a high school student. I play Football and Lacrosse for the school’s teams and it is my first year playing Lacrosse. I’ve played some indoor games for Lacrosse and it is actually a lot of fun. I scored at one of my games, I am not sure who I was facing but it was cool because it’s my first year and I was a JV player in a Varsity League. I mostly enjoy doing my sports but when I am free I like watching movies and hanging with some friends. In my family I have an older sister and a younger brother, we own three dogs and my little brother has a turtle. My future plans are to go to college and become an orthodontist.

ReplyDeleteHi my name is Megan Kleiber I’m 15 I have a really big family. I like to hang out with my friends and go do thing, I’m hardly ever at home. I plan on going to college to be a physiatrist (a counselor that helps people mainly little kids that have a rough life). Well I don’t ever blog so I don’t really know anything about blogging besides it’s something where you can post things and everyone can see it. In personal life I would probably use blogging to let people know anything they should know!
