Nice job getting this far!
This blog is your way of staying up-to-date even if you missed class. I will post on this blog every day everything that we did in class and what assignments you should be completing at home. Anytime you are missing an assignment, you can check this blog to keep you caught up.
Now that you are here, I want you to send me an email (jschachter@madison.k12.wi.us) with this information on it:
SHORT, EASY WRITING
1. A word or phrase you can make using some or all of the letters of your name.2. The first time you realized you were pretty good at something. What was it?
3.A time you saw someone do something that made you laugh.
4. Your favorite thing to do at home.
5. One thing you would tell the President if you could tell him anything you want.
6. Tell me some things I should know about you as a student (your learning styles, what teachers do that you hate, what teachers do that you love, your thoughts about reading and writing).
7. Tell me some things I should know about you as a person (tell me about your dreams, your family, your deep thoughts, your shallow thoughts).
8. Now I want to get a sample of your writing...I want you to be creative and spend some time on this part.
LONGER, DEEPER WRITING
This should be about 200 words...
I want to hear about you, but I also want to get a sense of how well you can write. Try to be detailed and creative. I don't need you to have perfect grammar, but the worse your spelling or punctuation is , the more difficult it is for me or anyone to understand what you're saying. If you are going to write something, make sure your reader can understand it, otherwise it is almost like not writing anything at all.
