Hello 3èmes!

Before posting the first question for discussion, I thought I'd put a reminder of what this is supposed to be about, what's required, etc. - so you always have it here for easy access.

* Once a week, you're required to write your own response to my blog question. You may skip 1 of these responses over the course of the unit.

* In addition, you are required to compose 3 separate responses to something your classmates have written.

* Your grade will be based on thoughtfulness, originality, and use of the text. Each response should be a minimum of 2 sentences. Feel free to use casual language and abbreviations, and to engage in debates with one another (even with me!) - just keep it respectful.

* You can receive bonus credit for participating frequently in the blog.

Any questions, post it here or email me: lisa.higgins@sis-sevres.net

Happy blogging!
