Welcome

Again, welcome to our blog! Blogs have become a popular new way of expressing your thoughts, opinions, and emotions, especially in reference to current events.

To start the class blogging, we will be working in the library/lab for a short period of time about once a week. Each week we will have a new assignment for you to accomplish. Let's get started!

This week's assignments:
  • Before we go any further into the new semester, we want to know more about you. Tell us a little about yourselves. Give us your name and tell us what kinds of hobbies and interests you have. How do you feel about the new semester? Reply to these requests by clicking "Comments" below.
  • Answer the poll on the right hand side of the blog. Check all of the answers that apply to your experiences.

  1. Hello class! This is your student teacher, Ms. Whelan. I'm in my senior year at UNC Charlotte and I'm so excited to finally graduate and work full-time in the classroom this semester.

    Not only do I love working with students and helping them find and meet their potential, but I love animals and hope to use animal-assisted therapy in the classroom one day.

    I've read and watched blogs in the past but up until last semester, I had not written any. I enjoyed reading interesting, humorous and sometimes disturbing articles that I could comment on using my blog, and I hope you guys come to enjoy it too.
