Happy Tuesday (or Thursday)!
This morning you began to write a story while incorporating the details we discussed together in class. Think of how you can enhance your work with adjectives, descriptions, and choosing your words carefully (Remember that all words have connotations!). Help the reader to see, feel, smell, hear and taste what you did. Type out your story onto your blog so that the other students can read it. Once you're finished feel free to look up some pictures, or upload your own, and add them to your post. Here is the longer version of the example we looked at together in class. It has some very beautiful pictures! http://andelsewhere.com/on-motorcycling-and-buddhist-funerals/
Your second post today is on the Museum of Civilization. What were your two questions that you wanted to find the answers to? Did you find the answers? What were they? What else did you see, learn and do? What was the most interesting aspect of the Museum and why?
All finished? Now you should add the other students in the class. You did this on your blogs home page and by clicking the "add" button. Please ask me if you need help. Here are the urls of the other students in the class:

For the rest of the class, please spend some time reading and commenting on the other students' blog posts. Let them know what you liked about their stories or whether or not you agreed with what they thought about the museum. You can also look at what other students commented and add or comment on their ideas.
Happy blogging!
