Blog Introductions

Hello Class,
I have begun to use this blog site for three other classes and it appears to be working out very well. It is a continuation of class and a way to express your thoughts while in the comforts of your own home. Blogs will mostly be counted as 10 points and be used like participation grades...if you fail to participate in this blog it WILL hurt your grade as participation is expected from all students in this class. I can post assignments here as well as send reminders of test/quizes or community service. What I will likely use this for however is more straight forward response to topics which I post.

Please use this opportunity to earn some easy points for Quarter 2. Take a minute and tell the class something about yourself and why you decided to take this elective. Comment if you have completed any community service (other than cleaning the courtyard) or if you have attended the town meeting.

When you sign up for the blog, please put first and last name on "display" so I can easily tell who you are...

Thanks,
Mr. Kendall

ps...check out these for the Maori Haka dance which I explained in class monday.

Semester 2 Civics Introductions

I'm assuming you are home looking at the blog so good afternoon or evening to you...

I will be using this blog to create 10 to 20 point assignments periodicly. You need to create an account then it will allow you to reply to my postings. Move the cursor over the different color print then click on title/heading to be able to post.

For this blog I'm simply looking to make sure you are all on.
Please explain a little about yourself, why you took this class and if you have any experience with community service to this point.
You can post a picture of yourself if you'd like as well...see you next period

MR. K
