Here is what I consider to be my best blog post
It's about the theme of my first independent reading book of the trimester. I found a really great theme hidden in the story, as you can tell by reading that post and it is, "fight for what you have, or it probably will be taken from you,". I thought that quote was the best theme that I found in any of my posts, and it also has gotten the most feedback, another reason I thought it might be my best. I did include many details, such as citing specific detail from the book itself to clear up some of the plotline and show the readers how I arrived at the theme that I did. As I said before, I used important parts of the plotline to clear it up in accordance with the second and third part of the theme and summary rubric.
Prompt Two:
One thing that I thought was difficult in the beginning was setting the whole thing up. I am not that great at technology so it was a challenge for me, even with the detailed instructions. After about two weeks though, when I had it down, I found that it was an easier way to do feedback on my reading and liked that I could choose what categories I would do for that week. One way I worked through my difficult setting up process in the beginning was that I emailed Ms. Cohen, and she was pretty helpful and also my brother John is pretty good with technology so that helped. One strength that I thought I had with blogging was putting it into a flowing organization so that it made sense what I was saying and when I was saying it. Another problem during the week that I found was when I read a portion of the text that really didn't have much stuff to talk about I thought that blogging was difficult. A way that I worked through that difficulty was by making more time to read so that I would have more stuff to talk about.
