Dear Dawn,
Hey, things are looking up. I think I was only asked one question today. Today was cyberjournal day (every Friday) and they were all hard at work when I came into the class. Then they are working on descriptive essays and personal narratives for their fairy tale site.
i am going to make them listen to me a few minutes next week and we will talk about audience and try to visualize our audience. Did you ever get any cyber mentors for your kids? i am thinking of approaching some people at the local college.
I am still at school because I have to work a basketball game tonight. If you want to see what the kids have done so far you can catch them on http://ps044.k12.sd.us/subweb/cybercomp_10 and then click on students' work.
