My post for the 3rd quarter has improved a lot, as I undestand from the comments the 7th and 8th graders made to me. I had both positives and negatives! My comments helped me understand what I did wrong and what I am supposed to do better on in the 4th quarter. Some things that I did well on were:

• good pictures
• good colors/font
• good websites
• easy to read
• good information
  
• good captions
• labels are done correctly
  
• the science is good
• grammar and punctuation
• well orginazed
• great length
• not boring
• fun and easy to read

Some things that I could improve next time were:

• Spelling, proofread for spelling mistake
• Explain on the cigarette picture a little more
• Previewing the post before I publish it
• Include questions for the activity, not only answers
• Link directly to audacity
• Explain commercials a bit more
• Use more bullet points
• Explain more about smoking
• Organize information better
• Add the pro smoking radio commercial
  

Overall, I think that blogging is ok to use! It was fun in some ways, but I think that people mainly kept an eye on their comments and the post to be really good because this project is graded! I also didn't like that the comments had due dates, I found that kind of annoying. Also when your writting a reflection post or a post, your writting it on a small window and I don't like that at all and I find it really hard to write like that! But I liked how we got to express our ideas about somebody's elses post and they got to share their ideas about my post! Blogger also helped me when I was out of class, and I kind of knew what we were doing in class and I think it helped other people too. Overall blogging was ok to me and I think we should continue doing this!
