Today you are blogging in room 208. Here are the instructions that are posted on our site for today:

Connections

  • Today I want you to focus on making connections.
  • Your goal should be to identify three different connections you’ve been able to make so far.
  • One connection=one paragraph.
  • For each connection, explain how making a connection helped you understand the text.
  • Don’t forget to comment on at least two other posts before the end of the period. 

A level four blog post will have the following characteristics:

  • Writing is organized in proper paragraphs with minimal to no spelling or grammar errors
  • Uses at least three specific examples from the text with page references
  • Explains ideas clearly
  • Makes connections between texts, self, and/or world.
  • Includes a picture that helps give the reader a sense of what your post is about.
  • Is properly tagged with the keyword title of your book (Divergent, Four, or Fire)
