This is where you will post your comments/discussion. LET THE 4 TOPIC STARTERS BEGIN FIRST. The rest of you need to REPLY underneath each of the started topics. MAKE SURE YOU POST IN THE CORRECT PLACE. I need to be able to easily tell that you have TWO responses for EACH of the FOUR topics. If you post them all together and not under the correct topic, I will not be able to give you credit.
For this blog, I want you to post NINE ideas total. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ORGANIZE YOUR POSTS UNDER THE CORRECT CHAPTERS!!! I will ask ONE student to start the post for each Chapter to help organize. Respond accordingly. All 9 posts will be due by Sunday night, 11:59 p.m. on January 6.

We are going to have an online discussion of the poem, "We Real Cool," instead
of analyzing it aloud in class. I will assign specific students to comment on one aspect of the poem to get it started. You need to respond, thoughtfully and at a higher level, to someone else's comment at least 3 times for each category. For the paragraphs PRIOR to completing this blog, you need to follow the 3 paragraph instructions that you usually do PLUS write ONE paragraph (a 4th one) giving information about the author. Find "dirt" about the author, not the usual facts i.e. where she was born, what her husband's name was, etc. Here is the poem below: We Real Cool The Pool Players. Seven at the Golden Shovel. We real cool. We Left school. We Lurk late. We Strike straight. We Sing sin. We Thin gin. We Jazz June. We Die soon.
