Getting to Know the Blog Assignment

Your task today is to answer the following questions in your binder under the title "Getting to Know the Blog." It will be R6 in your binder.
1) Find a post about how to use this blog.  Read it.  Who can read this blog?
2) What kinds of things might be posted on the blog?
3) Choose one of the links on the right under "Writing Resources".  Describe the website that the link takes you to.
4) Which tests will you be taking this year?  (Hint: check out the links on the right).  Visit one of the links and write down something you learned about the test.
5) When posting a comment to a post, you should always include your....
6) Now, read through the posts and choose one that interests you.  Post a comment. Comments must be thoughtful and detailed.  In order to do this you will need a gmail account.  If you do not already have one, you will need to create one.  Luckily there is a post on this blog to help you do that.
8) Optional: Sign up to have the blog emailed to you (to an email you use regularly), or program it into your phone.
9) If you do not complete this during class, it is homework to finish it.  If you finish before the end of the period, please let me know and then you may go into the library to quietly work on your independent reading.
