Class Blog Guidelines

Hello, Class!

In order to ensure we have productive discussions on our class blog, I want to set out some guidelines.

1.) Every Friday, I will be posting a new topic. You must respond to this topic in the comments section of the post at least once by Monday. You may comment more than once if you think of more ideas to share or want to respond to something someone else said.

2.) When you respond, please ONLY use your first name and last initial. Do not use your e-mail address or any other identifying information. Who knows what sort of creepazoids are out there!

3.) Always be polite and respectful to one another.  It is okay to disagree -- that is what makes a discussion dynamic, interesting, and purposeful. If we all agreed, there'd be nothing to discuss!

4.) Your responses should be at least two full paragraphs in length.  If you're inspired to write more, write more!  I love it! :)


All the Best,
Ms. Mansour

  12. I wanna be the very best,
    Like no one ever was.
    To catch them all is my real test,
    To train them is my cause.

    I will travel across the land,
    Searching far and wide.
    Teach Pokemon to understand
    The power that's inside

    Pokemon, (gotta catch them all) its you and me
    I know its my destiny
    Pokemon, oh, you're my best friend
    In a world we must defend

    Pokemon, (gotta catch them all) a heart so true
    Our courage will pull us through
    You teach me and I'll teach you
    (Po-ke-mon) Gotta catch 'em all

    Every challenge along the way
    With courage I will face
    I will battle every day
    To claim my rightful place

    Come with me, the time is right
    There's no better team
    Arm in arm we'll win the fight
    It's always been our dream

    Pokemon!

    (Gotta catch 'em all)

    It's you and me
    I know it's my destiny

    Pokemon!

    Oh, you're my best friend,
    In a world we must defend.

    Pokemon!

    A heart so true.
    Our courage will pull us through.
    You teach me and I'll teach you.

    Pokemon!

    (Gotta catch 'em all)x5

    Yeah!

    Pokemon!

    It's you and me
    I know it's my destiny

    Pokemon!

    Oh, you're my best friend,
    In a world we must defend.

    Pokemon!

    A heart so true.
    Our courage will pull us through.
    You teach me and I'll teach you.
    POKEMON!

    You better sing this out loud!!! :D
