Introduction

We’ll be using this site for teacher-to-student communication as well as student-to-student communication. My goal is to do at least one blog post per week. Generally I will post on Monday and you have until Friday to complete the weekly blog by leaving a comment. Many of you may have your own personal blogs on MySpace or similar sites. For those of you who have never used a blog, this will give you some experience.

Before we get started we’ll have to set some ground rules. First of all, all postings to this site must use school appropriate language. When you post, write in complete sentences. Key your first initial and last name at the end of your post so I know who posted it (all posts are worth points). When commenting on another student’s post, keep your comments non-personal. You can agree or disagree with a comment but refrain from sarcasm and/or put-downs. State your position on the issue at hand and why you feel that way.

Your first assignment: Tell me a little about yourself. Include information on your family, friends and things you enjoy doing. Have you ever blogged before?

  25. Hi my name is Destiny Perez. This is not my first time blogging. Something most people don't know about me is that I LOVE the color Pink.(: Also, I enjoy running, math, and science.(: It clears my mind of everything. I have two siblings; a brother and sister, both younger than myself. In my free time, I'm usually hanging out and getting into trouble with my friends.(: Family to me is the most important factor of life. One of the special places for me to go is Chillicothe, Ohio. This is where my mothers side of the family can get together and look back on the good things, and forget about the bad things.(: I don't much else to say, so I think that about sums it up.(:
