In order to earn the summer incentive award, students must blog at least 15 times throughout the summer with postings in at least 2 of the 3 months: June, July, and August. The entries must be at least 5 sentences long, written in complete sentences, and follow capitalization and punctuation rules.

To post a comment, click on the title of a post to view the comment box. Once the entry is typed, choose Name/URL from the "Comment As" drop down menu. Type your first name and last initial, then click continue, leaving URL blank. You will be prompted to type a series of numbers and letters. Once that is complete, your blog entry will be emailed to me. I will approve it for posting and it will appear the next day.

Students may respond to the same question more than once.

Please contact me if you experience difficulties!

Congratulations, Bloggers!

Welcome to month 3 of our blogging!  Originally, you were expected to blog 15 times over the summer, but I am going to reduce that number to 12.  A handful of you are already at 8 blogs - so you are well on your way to being considered completed with your blogging expectation.  Yeah!  I am enjoying hearing about your summer adventures and am proud of each of you for taking the time to write this summer. 

Remember you can always comment more than once on a post.
