Language Arts

Welcome! This is the first blog of the quarter. Take your time, check your entry for spelling and grammatical errors, and use your excellent vocabulary to express your thoughts. I look forward to reading about your the books you have read.

Hello Everyone! If you are here you have made it to the end of the yellow brick road. I look forward to reading your final thoughts before summer takes you away to the beach, vacations, sleeping in, tv land, and all those other places that you love.

You are almost there. If you stretch out you will be able to touch the finish line.

Only two more to go! Keep up the great work. Remember, you need to use a different prompt from the other blog you did this quarter. For example, if you wrote a diary entry for blog #1 you will not be allowed to do so for blog #2. Your score will be a "0" if you use the same format. Be creative and explore other modes of writing and thinking.

Almost there! Keep reading and blogging your way throughout the year. Remember to follow the prompt, at least 250 words per entry. There are many different ways to respond. Please do not summarize, follow the prompt and log your pages.

Remember the second quarter goes quickly. The blog is due on January 21, 2011. Spelling, capitalization, and vocabulary usage are all important.

Create a blog entry as one of the following characters from the play: Caesar(postmortem), Antony(before his speech), and Cassius or Brutus (after Antony's speech). Describe your innermost thoughts and feelings, what you cannot say aloud, and what you want the audience to know about you. Do you regret your actions, what would you have one differently if you could, and what are your hopes for the future?
