Welcome

Dear 5th graders:

Welcome to the world of blogging. As we talked about in class. Blogs are a way for people to share interactively with each other on the web. We will be using this blog to discuss the book Joey Pigza Swallowed the Key. To do this though we will need to have some ground rules about posting to the blog.

1. Rule #1

We will follow the same rules on the blog as we do in the class room:

Be responsible: To the computer lab (in this case the Blog)
To your classmates
To yourself

2. Rule #2

Continuing with the first rule, remember "If you can't say something nice about someone, do not say anything at all." Everyone is welcome and expected to share their thoughts about the book. If you don't agree with someone's opinion, then find a "good" way to comment about them. Do not make your comments personal towards another person.

3. Rule #3

This is a school related activity, all rules that apply at Big Timber Grade School applies when posting to this blog.
