First Impressions

We begin our school year just as we will end it:  writing. Whether we are writing responses to literature, fictional narratives, persuasive essays, poetry, or blog posts right here in this space, we will be fine tuning our skills and improving our ability to communicate in writing.  Your homework:  join this site as (see sidebar at left), and write a four to six line poem introducing yourself to me and to the rest of the class.  Due by 7 a.m. Tuesday, September 4, 2012.

  3. School can make a profession
    Sports can do the same
    I focus on sports, but school is important too
    If I get a bad grade, I lose video games
    All these hobbies are important to me, but school comes over all
