Welcome! This Is How the Blog Works


Hello class of 2013!

As you already know, we have been reading the book First They Killed My Father. We would like you to blog daily or as the chapters are assigned. You should blog your thoughts, questions, ideas, opinions, and everything and anything you would like to say about the book and it's literary elements (setting, characters, plot, conflict).

It is expected of you to blog daily and to respond to your peer's blogs as well.

Please have fun with this and remember to remain RESPECTFUL!!!

By blogging, you are meeting the English 2 standard for "proper use of technology in the classroom". You can receive a P or an HP.
