Hi, my name is Mrs. Jones and I teach middle school Language Arts and Literature. My students and I are starting a new journey this semester where we will be doing most of our writing on our own personal blogs. Each student has chosen a topic of interest to blog about and will post to his/her blog 2-3 times each week. Students may include text, images, pictures, scans, podcasts, etc. when posting to their blogs. They will be graded each week on their spelling, capitalization/punctuation, grammar, and the writing traits. Each student has an online rubric in their Google Drives that they may access to continuously watch how their blogs are being evaluated. These blogs are intended to encourage personal expression through writing and give students an opportunity to practice their writing skills.
I will be posting to my own blog as well during this journey, and I have chosen to write a blog on reading and books. I will provide reviews on books my students and I are reading as well as information on books in the media! I may include new releases from the Barnes & Noble website and other reading recommendation lists!
