GUIDELINES FOR CREATING YOUR THEMATIC UNIT BLOG

GUIDELINES FOR YOUR THEMATIC PLAN BLOG SITE:

Here you will find the required elements to the blog you will be creating and building throughout this course.

Your blog will be the space where you can collect, share, display and discuss your thematic unit.  I have placed you in groups of four:

Blog Group #1 (Please note that his group may have different members than your meeting group)	Blog Group #2 (Please note that his group may have different members than your meeting group)
Karen Markert http://marker1-homesuitehome.blogspot.com/ Mindy Schupp http://crackersinmyschupp.blogspot.com/ Tony Cadott http://t0nyc.blogspot.com/ Christine Scheid http://childrensliteratureforum.blogspot.com/	Heidi Sirek http://hsirek.blogspot.com/ Cadi O’Connell http://cadioconnell.blogspot.com/ Gretta Kesselring http://gretanohanashi.blogspot.com/ Paula Johnson   http://childread-pj.blogspot.com
Blog Group #3 (Please note that this group may have different members than your meeting group)	Blog Group #4 (Please note that this group may have different members than your meeting group)
Amy Klein http://kleinal.blogspot.com/ Jennifer Kieren http://silentlycorrectingyourgrammar.blogspot.com/ Jori Healy http://joristories.blogspot.com/	Heather Hinz http://www.heatherhinzwrites.blogspot.com/ Kelli Newman http://kellistheme.blogspot.com/ Lynsey Gausman http://www.lynseygausman.blogspot.com

If there is not a blog address next to your name this means you do not have a complete blog addressed posted onto D2L.  Please make sure that you make your blog address available for all on the D2L-Discussion-Blog address. 

The people in your group will be the people that you MUST “follow.”  This means you will read their blogs (they will read yours), give you helpful feedback, pose thoughtful questions, give guidance and support and engage in meaningful conversations centered on your theme and the literature you are choosing.  Your first feedback needs to be posted on each member of your blog group’s blog on or before 1:00, Saturday, February 18,
