-Each assignment will be graded for 25 points (5 points each for length of posting, length of response, quality of posting, quality of response, and language usage).
Rationale for the Assignment: I understand that some students may feel more comfortable completing reading logs on paper; however, it is crucial for them to become more familiar and comfortable with using technology to supplement and enhance their education. As students progress from middle school to high school and from high school to college or into the workforce, they will find an increasing demand for online communication and the use of technological resources. My goal, as an educator, is to prepare them for these demands and to develop an online community where students can showcase critical thinking skills, reading strategies, and a passion for reading. *//Please understand that your child's safety is of the utmost importance and has been my number one priority as I designed this assignment. All postings will remain anonymous.//* For questions about reading/posting requirements, please e-mail me at kelly.merrbach@fcps.org.
