    I agree to all of these rules, they seem resonable. I think that this is a good idea because typing is a lot easier and we won’t be able to forget it in the printer.

    i think that this blog idea is a great idea so we could continue with all of our great discusion in class here on the blog but i still do not think you need to approve it because it takes time for you to approve things for us to be able to read it.

  • 25    Erin // Dec 8, 2006 at 10:19 am

    I agree to the rules. I think this is a good idea for homework because it is easier to use and we don’t have to print our work out. Also it will be helpful to read other people’s work so we can get new ideas that we might have missed before.

  • 39    Jacqui // Dec 8, 2006 at 1:11 pm

    I agree with these rules, it is a great idea to have a blog. I think it is important to see other people’s thoughts and ideas. It’s a good way of communication outside of class.

    Thanks Mr. Chauncey!

  • 40    Jacqui // Dec 9, 2006 at 5:50 pm

    I agree with these rules and they should be followed.

    I think that the blog will help a lot. There is only a certain number of people in a class and it is a good way of communication between classes. It will help because we can’t forget our homework on the kitchen table…it will be on the blog!
    It also will help so that we can see other’s ideas and maybe notice something that we missed. Also, it probably will improve our typing, and knowledge of history.
    I personally think it will help people rember things better if we type it out on the computer and see other’s thoughts. It also will be interusting to see other’s thoughts on someone else’s thoughts.
    Before we couldn’t see other’s thoughts and homework. Other people couldn’t see my thoughts and comment on them. Now we can, and that is what I think is so great about this blog.
    It is a great idea and I’m glad that you did it Mr. Chauncey!

    Thanks again!

    I agree with the rules completely. They seem fair and will probably work. The rules about the respecting others opinios definately seem well thought out. This will be an easy way not to lose our homework.
