So today we got a writing day which we are suppose to write about whatever as I look around I see a lot of people blogging, writing down goals, everything and I got to say its pretty weird just sitting here in dead silence its never this quiet in here. I used to hate blogging but now I do like it, I like when people comment on it and seeing how people respond to what I have to say. You should defiantly keep doing this after this amazing group of seniors leave :)

Today in class we all drew a picture illustrating a point in our life in which our lives were greatly affected. The hard part was we had to use our non-dominant hand. Since we weren't using our regular hand to write, our pictures were pretty pathetic. There were a couple people that had good drawings, but most of them were hard to understand. The point of using our non-dominant was to make it so everyone was uncomfortable with the drawing. It was a fun activity, and I think we all learned new things about each other.

Today we continued to set up our blogger or word press accounts. We started to write our first post on the websites. We started looking at the other kids from Van Meeter, and Sioux Central. We are going to comment on their blogs about what we got out of their writings, and encourage them to keep blogging.

Today we learned how to respond to someone else’s posts. What is right: Call them by their username, or first name; encourage them to keep blogging, and specific in your response as to what you are talking about. We also talked about what is wrong to say: don’t be negative and degrading to the person who posted the blog. Some of us then actually began blogging.
