2nd Saturday Assignment

Welcome back Bloggers! If you did not get the chance to comment on the "Would you rather..." topic next week, please do that first. Pick a response that you agree with (or disagree with) and let that person know! Remember to post using your initials.

We read an article about texting "rules" earlier today, now let's think about cell phone rules. How many of you have ever seen someone talking on their cell phone while driving? Well, some cities and states want to ban that practice because many people are getting into accidents while talking on their phone. What do you think? Read this short article and write a response by clicking on "comment" below the article. After responding enter your initials for your name, your email address (if you don't have one tell me) and hit post. You will be asked to enter a word for verification. Make sure you use your best spelling and writing skills as this is going to post for the world to see!

When you are finished read this about water bottles polluting our world. What can we do about this problem? If you have a solution post a comment below.

Assignment #1

Choose any two of the following "Would you Rather" questions to answer in paragraph form as a comment to this thread. Remember, this is not a note to your friend, you are publishing something for the WORLD to see! Make sure that what you are writing makes sense and that you use correct grammar and spelling. Both of your answers should be in one comment (see my example comment).

After you leave your comment, read through the other comments. Pick at least one comment to respond to. Again, remember that what you write will be seen by the world so use your best writing skills!

  1. Would you rather it be winter forever OR summer forever? Explain.
  2. Would you rather be happy and poor OR miserable and rich? Explain.
  3. Would you rather go without junk food for life OR go without television for life? Explain.
  4. Would you rather spend the night alone in a supposedly haunted house OR camp out alone in the woods.

How to comment on a post

Click on "# Comments"
After typing your comment click on "Comment As:"
Select "Name/URL"
Use your initials and grade level to sign your comment. EX: "ALB8"
Do NOT use your real name!!!
Leave the URL blank.
A Word Verification will pop up. Type in the word as it appears on the screen.

To comment on someone else's comment, write their name first in your message so that they know you are responding to them... like this:

ALB8
I really like what you had to say about the concert. It was truly amazing!
