Final Thursday




This upcoming Thursday, July 16, will be our final day in the computer lab. On this day you are to complete your blogs.
A completed blog gets broken down as follows:
  • blogs have four entries. One for each week


  • each entry should have at least three paragraphs


  • paragraphs should review what was learned through out the week, and can focus on lectures, assignments, grammar, essay, quickwrites, or anything else you learned in class.


  • don't forget to give examples


  • use your notes


  • for extra credit add a photo of yourself to your blog



Finally, you must email me a link to your blog. If you don't email me the link, I will not be able to view your blog and you will not be graded for your work. Follow the directions below to email me the link.

If you forgot the address of your blog, you can find it by

  • clicking on the dashboard link in the top right corner of your blog page


  • then click on view blog


  • the address will appear in the URL address bar at the top of the page




In addition to finishing your blogs you are to write your movie review for Juno. Add this movie review, that you have already written, to your publisher document that you began the first week of summer school with your partner. Print it out (in b&w is free color is 10 cents).

comma chart


Morning!

This week in the computer lab you will be creating a chart/table using Microsoft Word. Your chart will have three columns. The first column will list the type of comma being used e.g., appositive, series, numbers. The second column will show the rule for the comma using your own words. The third column will provide a new and original example. Look at your notes, and make sure you have included all the commas learned.


your second assignment is to access your blog and journal what you have learned this week. As a reminder, we covered how to write an essay using the proper format and commas. USE YOUR NOTES.
