Got thoughts?
So I know that not everyone out there is super acquainted with the world of blogging!! Believe me, until about a year ago when my friends started having babies and using a blog as their way to post pictures and stay in touch, I had no idea what this realm entailed either. My original hope was that students would read my thoughts on what we are doing in our classroom and then respond to my posts. However, not all too many have caught on. I soon realized that the blog would not only be a great way to hear students and to get them reading outside of the classroom and outside of a leather-bound, reading-in-the-traditional sense book type of way, but it would also be an excellent portal for parent and community feedback.
The only problem with this notion is that some parents, students, and community members are just as clueless as I once was….SO here is a small tutorial, a step-by-step lesson on how to respond to my writing:
--Go to my blog at astonmoody.blogspot.com (Obviously, you’ve mastered step one if you are reading this. Congrats; you’re half way there!)
--Read my post. My posts remain on the blog from most recent (the one you see first) to the older ones, which you can view by scrolling down. If you find yourself unable to view old posts, there is a tab at the very bottom that says, “older posts.” Click it.
--At the bottom of each post (writing), you will see a tab that says,
“Posted by Aston Hetrick Moody at 10:45 AM 4 comments.” Click on the part that says, “# comments.”
--You may read the comments or simply scroll to the bottom where it says, “post a comment.” --In that box, write whatever you would like. You may respond to previous comments, or you may speak what’s on your mind.
--When you are finished, you will see a part below it that asks, “Comment as?” If it is your first time commenting, then you will need to click on “subscribe by email.” That will let you sign in to be a follower according to your email address.
--Then click post comment.
***If none of this works, then do not fret. I would still LOVE LOVE LOVE to hear your feedback, opinions, suggestions, or ideas, and you can email them to me at amoody@lex5.k12.sc.us
Therefore, I ask again: Got opinions??

Ms. Moody thank you so much for teaching me the correct way to make sentences. When I took the Psat it had a lot of same things we went over in class. Thanks to your help in teaching me. I feel that I did well on that section of the test. I cannot wait to learn more in your class throughout the year!
