Hello again everyone!
Today you are going to add another new post to your blog.
Now that we have gone to the library and you have chosen your first SSR book, you need to do a post about what you chose.
Tell the title and author of the book. Find a picture of the book online (save the picture so that you can use it) and insert the picture in to your blog post.
Explain why you picked the book you picked.
Make predictions about what the book will be about, and what reading it will be like, based on the title, the cover, the author's name, and anything else you know about the book.
Once you have finished this task, and published the post, look at the posts of your classmates. Read them and make comments on them. Do you think their book sounds interesting? Have you read the book they chose before? If so, did you like it? Remember to speak with good purpose only.
Once you have finished that, you may begin reading your SSR book until the end of the period.
No homework today ;) yay!!

English I -- your task today is YOUR PERSONAL LITERARY HISTORY
Hi everyone!!!
Welcome to the world of blogging. I am so excited for us to have this online community where we are sharing our thoughts and ideas with each other.
Your task for today is to do a blog post of your personal literary history. Using images and words, tell the story of the books that have influenced you and how you feel about reading, whether it is good or bad. Once you have completed yours, you should look at the blogs of your classmates, and if they have finished theirs you should read it and comment on it. Make sure your comments are always respectful and appropriate.
I look forward to reading each of your literary histories!
