Instructions

Every Monday morning, I will post a topic on my blog, which you are reading these instructions from. Once you have read my topic, you will need to leave a comment on my page. However, this "comment" should be more than one sentence. It should be your response to the question I am posting on my blog. I would really like to encourage you all to try to write as much as you can. Although I would like for you to write as much as you can, please do not spend more than 30 minutes writing them.

If you read a comment from your classmates that you find to be interesting, feel free to comment to them as well! Lets try to make this as interactive via the Internet as possible. Your responses and comments will need to be completed by 8:00 p.m. each Friday that a blog topic is posted. 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.

On a final note, these blogs are intended to be fun and to allow you to further practice writing in English in a variety of avenues. 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. Have fun!!

Welcome to Fundamental Composition!  I really look forward to getting to know you all better as we spend this semester together.  I recall that some of you stated that you enjoy writing, whereas there are those of you who do not.  Regardless, I hope that we will all be able to enjoy each other's presence and learn a lot from one another.  Please take this opportunity to express yourself and explore the English language as you post your blog entries.  Once again, welcome!!
