Hi scholars! One of the great things about writing a blog is getting comments, but it's important to make sure that your comments are always appropriate and safe! Here are some tips to do your best blog commenting ...
- When you write on the blog, use your first name only. You may use your last initial but should never use your full name.
- Do not post your address, phone number, or email address on the blog.
- Never post comments that may hurt someone’s feelings or offend someone.
- Remember that blogging is about reading, thinking, and responding.
And about the style and quality of your writing:
- Your comment should be on topic! If the post talks about Chris van Allsburg, please don’t write about how delicious chocolate is. We all agree that chocolate is delicious but that is not an appropriate place for that discussion. Please talk about Chris van Allsburg. If you have a story you’d like to tell everyone about, please write it in the “SHARE” section.
- You should write in complete sentences. You shouldn’t be saying things like “Hi guys! Bye!” Please write sentences such as “I think omnivore is a great animal word because it is a type of animal that eats both meat and vegetables.”
- Please use proper spelling, punctuation, and grammar. Remember that you only need one exclamation mark. You will get your point across when you say, “You did an amazing job!” You DO NOT need to say “You did an amazing job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” You would not do this on your writing in class, please do not write it this way on the blog.
