Blog Housekeeping

Some Monday housekeeping (announcements):

1. Weekly Words: for an example of what I want, see Amy's blog: http://amyyoon.blogspot.com/
2. Future News of Choice Articles:
- In the future, you do not need to print or post the entire article, only the headline, the source, and the link.
- Be sure to write a summary that shows you read the article, and be sure to write a reaction that shows you understand it.
- To receive full credit, you must both print & post the article link & summary.
3. More Blog Housekeeping:
- Even though it is a blog online, please follow the writing rules we discussed in class. Sentences should have capitals and periods, and words should be spelled the best way you can (no "u" for "you", for example).
4. Blog Homework Grade:
- By 5:00pm Tuesday, 10/27, I will assign a grade for complete blogs. Your blogs should have:
1. Introduction
2. Dirt Blog
3. News of Choice headline, link, and reaction summary
4. Two reaction comments posted to a classmate's News of Choice post.
5. Six (6) Weekly Words, definitions, & situations (see example below on Friday HW)
