What is a Good Book Blog Comment?
A “good” book blog post:
• is written in full sentences, with full words and no abbreviations, (not like texting).
• has a title and a salutation (This comment by . . .).
• is organized and makes sense for the reader.
• has correct spelling, grammar and punctuation
• does not include ANY derogatory, rude, harmful or inappropriate language.
• considers internet safety and does not refer to any students by name or class
o When you write your comment you will sign off using your first and last initial and then your class. (So I would write CR Lib)
o All comments are moderated, which means that before they are posted on the blog, they come to my personal email and I read them through to make sure they are appropriate.
