All of you need to respond to 4 MAUS discussions posted on Cross Country Connections BLOG Your response can be to the original question asked, or you can comment on a post made by another student.
Cross Country Connections is a BLOG community created after a conversation I had with one of my United States Holocaust Museum Teacher Fellow peers. WE set up the blog so that our students could virtually discuss a book that we were reading in class.
Make sure your responses are clear and communicated using textual evidence. Remember your audience is not necessarily in our classroom.
A blog response is 200-300 words, including textual evidence.
To get credit for your response, you need to sign your post with your first name and last initial, if not your last name as well!
You MUST complete TWO responses for each book...4 total!
Remember the BLOG IS PUBLIC. Good DIGITAL CITIZENS use appropriate language and cite sources.
Any student that thoroughly responds to EACH BLOG POST with a 200-300 word reply (that is thorough, and adheres to digital citizenship rules) will be eligible a LITERATURE BONUS.
Posts will be counted starting 10-1-13, the day the announcement was made in class. The closing date for the BLOG comments will be announced with a week to go...it should run through most of OCTOBER. Perhaps into November...
See me if you have any questions!
