Throughout the school year, pairs of students will be tasked with recording all pertinent information from Ms. Ellis’ class for their assigned week. The blog is due every Saturday at 8pm. Email your blog to Ms. Ellis at msdrellis@gmail.com.

Create your blog in a word document. I will copy and paste your information into our WordPress blog. Please PROOFREAD your work. I will not proofread each post. Your grade will be negatively affected if your blog is unorganized, missing information, or unedited.

Groups should be keeping track of the following information:

1. Specific HW list from the entire week. (include assignment titles, directions, dates due).

2. Notes on all texts read. (Be specific! Titles, authors, notes)

3. Key vocabulary (include definitions)

4. Class activities (i.e., bellringers, exit slips, group activities/ discussions, tests, etc.)

5. Any other relevant information covered during the week.

Please see below for a template for your blog. (NOTE: Your blogs do not have to look identical. Feel free to add pictures from class or videos of my lectures. Maybe an inspirational video that you want to share with your classmates. Be sure that anything included is APPROPRIATE for an 11th grade classroom setting.)
