2nd period reminders: 10-5-10

A few gentle reminders...

1. Go to September archives (on the right towards the bottom) and answer the online response #1 question...thank you those who already did.
2. When you have a few minutes...look to the right under the food writing section and there is a link to epals warm-up. You don't have to have an account (I don't think) to post to this link. It went with our food writing and focus on customs (from "All American Slurp").
3. Find a quote by an author and bring it to class. Make sure you give credit to the author and write it down as a direct quotation. It may be used on the blog.
4. Poetry contest- this disappeared from the site...not sure what happened. If you are interested in submitting see me. I will open this up to all classes and set a new deadline.
5. Get out those Digital Storytelling Project sheets...oh yes...it is almost time! We will work out any problems with recording, sharing devices, etc. No worries...however, I don't think they will approve our correspondence with the school in New Zealand if it is a school account. We will still do the project and have a culminating celebration- hopefully with your parents there. To be continued...
