Welcome

Hello Class!
This is a blog that is just for our 10th grade English class.  This will be a reference for you throughout the semester.  I will post assignments here, examples of the assignments, rubrics, reminders for upcoming assignment due dates, news relevant to language and literature, and occasionally things just for fun.   At different times throughout the semester you will be asked to comment on these posts, so that I know you accessed the information.  This is also to help you engage with certain texts, and be able to respond to them in a written form.  These are assignments and are worth 5-30 points (based on the difficulty). You will know when these times are because I will let you know in class and send out an email.  

This is a post that I want everyone to respond to so that I know you know how to access the blog and know how to post.  So essentially this is a trial!  In your comment I want you to tell me about your favorite thing to do after you leave school.   The comments for this post will be worth 5 points.  Thank you so much and I look forward to reading your comments. 

P.S. Make sure you comment by 12:00 a.m. November 17th or else it will be counted as a late assignment and you'll only get 50%!
