Blog 10 - Monday, October 20, 2014

There will only be one (1) blog this week (No School Friday!)

This week is Digital Citizenship Week.

An important part of my English class is to make you aware of what you post on-line and what it means to be a good digital citizen.  Being a good digital citizen includes:
- being aware of your digital footprints;
- demonstrating safe and respectful online etiquette;
- not cyberbullying, sexting, or posting inappropriate photos and/or videos,
- making important decisions about what to post to social media sites; and,
- not downloading or uploading inappropriate content

For this blog, I would like you to CREATE an important Digital Citizenship message using MEMES!

A meme in a generic message about a behaviour that is passed around on-line.

Using memegenerator.net or makeameme.org you will have to create a MEME about being a GOOD Digital Citizen.  You could share or e-mail me (gkatz@lbpearson.ca) the meme and then post your explanation about the meme on the blog site.

Have Fun!

E-mail the picture to gkatz@lbpearson.ca

Don't forget to write your explanation on this blog site!

Have fun.

Don't you HATE being told what to do?  Wouldn't it be easy to just run away from ALL the rules?

Blog 7 - Monday, October 6, 2014

We all deal with death differently.  It is never easy to see a family member, friend, or someone close to you die.  How do you handle death?  What are strategies you would recommend to people to help them deal with the loss of a close person? Explain.
