1.  Blog entries or comments must be posted daily, or as directed by Mrs. Wissler and the ever changing schedule. Do not pester her to work on your blogs.  She will give you time!

2.  Blogs must be a minimum of 5 complete sentences.  I would definitely suggest writing more.  The more you write on a daily basis, even if commenting on other students blogs, the more your writing fluency will grow.

3.  Please keep your entry content school appropriate.  If you wouldn’t say it around me or around your parents, don’t write it in this blog.

4.  Comments on classmates’ posts are expected to be appropriate and respectful. You must use academic talk (refer to academic talk Google Slide Presentation that we went over), and STARS, WISHES, and WONDERS (Mr. Geiman taught you this during collaborative group).  No one will bully, insult, or put down anyone at anytime.

5.  Use your own words when writing your posts.  If you refer to other content outside (articles, images, videos, etc.), link back to the source. Use an embedded link, as this is how you cite work on a blog.

6. Most importantly, have fun blogging!!!! This is meant to be a creative way to write, so have fun with it!

7. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know!

HAPPY BLOGGING!!!
