Lesson
Students all over the world face similar problems
that you face in this vary classroom, everyday.
You worry about what kinds of clothes you are wear, whether Joe wants to
be your friend, or if anyone else has to spend the weekend with their Dad in a
different town. For this assignment we
are going to take a look at The Dairy of a Wimpy Kid. I am sure that you will find that your life
is not much different then those of the people around you or even in other
parts of the state, country or world.
For this assignment I would like you
to read three days of journal entries from The Dairy of a Wimpy Kid. I would also like you to do a little research
on blogging. I have a few questions that
I would like you to answer. In the
future we will be setting up a blog for our classroom
and each one of us will be able to write about what we encountered that day at
school.
