Create a Community

You have two assignments today.

A. Assignment number 1 is to edit your blogs. Many of them have mistakes in them. When I grade them, I will be looking for the following:
1. Capital letters in the beginning of sentences.
2. i am not unimportant, I am very important, so your "I" must be capital!
3. Verbs that agree with the subject, for example: "Ms. Harding is cool" not "Ms. Harding are cool."
4. Every verb must have a subject. Don't say: "Am tall." Who? What? Help me out, here, I don't know.
5. Finally, in English- People do not HAVE years. EVER!! Check for this in your introductions, please!!!


B. Assignment Number 2 is to follow all of your classmates' blogs.
Look on the bottom right side of my blog. Do you see all of your names? I created a list of all of your blogs on my page so it is easy to find each other's blogs. Have you also noticed that I am "following" all of you? This too is an easy way to connect blogs. I want you to follow every one of your classmates. This is VERY easy. Follow these steps.

1. Click on the first person's name on the list (Adrián.) It should take you to his blog. On the top, there should be a button that says "Follow Blog." It asked you to confirm and then "voila!" - you are now following him. Do this for every one of your classmates.

2. If you have difficulty with this, ask your classmates for help. If they can't help you, ask me.

3. Now that you have finished adding your classmates to your blog, it is time to comment! I would like you to leave 3 two sentence comments on each other's blogs. Comment on blog one or blog two.
