Hi Everyone!
Welcome to the 2009-2010 GT English 10 blog. This is where you will be able to share your thoughts and observations about the readings we will be doing in class. Before you start blogging, please read the following guidelines for posts. You will be required to contribute to the blog as a part of your participation grade. It will be up to you to keep up with posts, so be sure to check the blog a few times per week!
Guidelines
1. You must make 2 posts per week. One post must be an original post about something we are reading in class or an extension of a class discussion. The other must be a response to a classmates' post.
2. Posts must be at least 250 words in length, but no more than 500 words in length.
3. Posts must be appropriate; that is, they must be written as if you were submitting them as papers in class. If you are responding to a classmates' post please remember to be respectful of their opinions and thoughts.
4. Grammar and spelling will only be taken into account if they interfere with meaning.
5. Each post will count as a particpation grade. They will be each be worth 15 points, so they will equate to three good discussion points in class.
