Directions for Blog Responses

Directions for Blog Responses:

  • Answer all writing prompts in paragraph form.
  • Type your answers in a clear and large font.
  • Responses must be YOUR OWN WORK.
  • Be sure to consider ALL parts of the prompt in your response.
  • You must include specific examples for support.
  • Proofread your response because spelling and punctuation will be graded.
  • In addition to writing your own blog response, you must comment on another student's post. Your comment must be at least two to three sentences in length and directly relate to that post's content.

  • Blog Responses must be completed within one week of finishing the assigned reading for that blog prompt. For example, if you are to blog after reading pages 1-36 and we finish reading those pages on a Friday, you have until the following Friday to type your blog response.
  • Post your comment under your first name and last initial Ex: Stephani J.
