What do I do?

It has been said that writers are artists. Hence, as artists, we like to find different ways to express ourselves. In our case, our way of expression comes in the form of written text.

I would like all of you to be artists with the freedom to express yourselves in any way that you would like. Every Monday morning, I will post the topic for you to write about. Once you have read my topic, you will need to write your responses on your own blog. Your responses ought to be 2-3 paragraphs in length, but you should not spend more than 30 minutes writing them. Be sure to title each blog entry with "Topic #__:" and then your own title.

Next, you will need to comment on your classmates' blogs. Each student needs to leave a 2-3 sentences comment on two other students' blogs in order to receive credit per week.

Your responses and comments will need to be completed by5:00 p.m. every Friday. There will be no exception! Therefore, plan on completing this assignment before the Friday deadline in order to ensure that you receive full credit, which will be 10 points for each week. I will be leaving a comment on each blog I read to indicate to you that I have read your blog.

On a final note, these blogs are intended to be fun and to allow you to display your creativity. Be adventurous and express yourselves! Although we may occasionally use some of your blog entries for grammar practice, these blogs are primarily focused on content. Therefore, have fun!

Topics #8: Senses

As we all know, human beings have five senses: touch, smell, hearing, taste, and sight.  From what I can see, I know that everyone in this class currently is able to use all five senses.  HOWEVER!  If you had to lose one of your five senses, which would it be and why??

Topic #7: What Would You UN-invent?

We can very easily say that within the past decade, technology has made leaps and bounds in its advancement.  Do you remember when cell phones were JUST cell phones?  Do you remember the time before cell phones came into existence?  Did any of you carry pagers/beepers?  It is true that technology has made life easier.  However, I would like you to take a moment to really think about it.  Has technology truly made our lives easier?  Hmm...

The question I have for you this week is an invention that you would UN-invent.  Haha!  It sounds quite contradictory, but I want you all to really think about it and write your entries on this topic.
