Making comments to posts

Don’t forget your assignment over this long weekend is to go read other Oakdale Eagle reporter posts and make at least one comment (or reply) to at least one post. THUMBS UP to Jahmila B for being the first to do that.

Also you need to start thinking about an article for our next Oakdale Eagle. THUMBS UP to Avianna T for already  having and idea and a photo to go along with it.

Week of Jan 9th

We wrote about the snow. First we talked about it. Then we made a graphic organizer (5ws). We also practiced expanding on our ideas. We learned the words expand, dusk and dawn.

Then we started writing our articles. We had to do some editing and then we started posting them on our blogs.
