Welcome to Our Class Blog

As we read In Cold Blood, you will be completing a series of blog posts.  All blog post due dates are listed on your calendar.  If a blog is due on a particular date, that means that they are posted by 8:00 a.m. on that date, or they are late and they will not be graded.  The point of the blog is not to tell your classmates what you do and do no like about the text, although that may be part of your response. Responses must specifically pertain to the prompt given to you and they must be grounded in textual evidence (i.e. they should show proof of your close reading).  Along the same lines, you are not to repeat what other have said; you are, however, encouraged to respond to others by name, as long as responses are appropriate.  My advice is to complete these posts as soon as you can, as computer or other technology issues will not suffice as a reason for late work.  Happy Blogging!
