What I Have Been Taught and What I Should Be Taught in the Future

    At the beginning of the year, I thought that my teacher would never pick me to do anything special. When I heard that she chose me to be in a special writing class, I was absolutely  thrilled!!!!

     Now, I can take a regular writing class and a special writing class!!! Ms. Davis has been really nice to me and has taught me how to be a better writer.

     She has taught me and others how to take pride and responsibility in our writing. She taught the group  how to spell check, make good writing tips, and how to "bump up " our writing.

     Later on, I hope that we will be able to post about something new and adventurous. The topic that I would choose to write about would be :

       Write as if you were stranded on a island with  a group of people that all needed shelter, food, and water.

     I think that this topic would be fun to write about!!!!

What Goes On Around Here

 

                 If someone came up to you and asked you what weblogging was, what would you say? I would say exactly this. Weblogging is when you can have the freedom to express yourself, and write about whatever you want to! You have to be careful when you write because you could be writing in front of the whole world! At first, I was very excited about having ownership over my own weblog, and the excitement keeps building!!!

Organization, lots of details, improving details, a good lead, having good word choice, descriptive writing, having a flow in your writing, using thought provoking questions, and using vivid vocabulary are just some of the things that my fellow bloggers and I have to worry about while writing our posts.

Our instructor Mrs. Davis gives us “hand-outs” almost every time we come to our webloging class. She taught us how to use the 5 Ws. Who, what, when, where, why, and she always says that we can through in how!

                    Sometimes she will give us breaks. When I say breaks, I mean a few games on certain websites. These games are on educational websites to help us with our writing. I am loving it! Sometimes Mrs. Davis is not all fun and games, because sometimes we have to get right to work on our new posts. I am still LOVING it!!!

                     Well, its been great talking to you about the great wonders of weblogging, but I have to go write and explore!!!

                      If someone came up to you and asked you what weblogging was, what would you say? If someone came up to you and asked you what weblogging was, what would you say?
