Hey Fourth Graders! This is your blog for responding and reflecting on what we are reading in class. You will be answering specific questions or you will be asked to comment on different thoughts or ideas, but there are some things that you need to remember:
Nothing will show up in either your post or your comments until a teacher has approved them.
Never use your last name, address, birthday, or other personal information in your post.
Be kind in your comments. Also remember that many people will be looking at this blog, from other teachers, our principal, other students and even people we may not know! So make sure to pay attention to your spelling, your punctuation and the words you are using. It will be lots of fun!
