Welcome! It was so nice to meet you all today at Glendale. We hope you enjoyed seeing our wonderful school - especially the Library Media Center!
As promised, here is your very first high school homework assignment. Please follow the directions closely!
You started off at the Glendale Library Website. If you didn't already look around on all the pages, please go back to it and see all there is to see. You'll learn so much about our library!
Next, you visited Falcons Off the Shelf. This blog was designed with you, our Future Falcons, in mind. We want you to know this special place on the Internet is your very own. Visit it every week! Tell us what books you are reading and what you like about them. If you read a book that makes you want to write a story or a poem, send it to us. We'd love to put it on the site so that everyone can enjoy your creation. If you or your parents or teachers have ideas about other ways to use Falcons Off the Shelf, I am all ears - please tell me your thoughts!
In the meantime, I know you are very anxious to get started on your homework. So, here it is.
Directions
1. Read the Rules of the Road at the right and follow them exactly! We don't allow any students to use their last names on our Website, so please only use your first name, your grade, and your school in any comments you write here.
2. Take the poll right below Rules of the Road to tell us how excited you are to be a Glendale Falcon. Before you come back here, also take the Favorite Foods survey.
3. Read the post right below this one and make your comments. (If you don't know how to comment on a blog, the directions are on the right side of this page. Don't worry if you don't know how, I just taught two classes of freshmen how to do this last week!)
4. After you have read the post and sent in your comment, go to the top of this page and click on the link that reads "Take Me Back to Falcons Off the Shelf". From there, I'd like you to visit every page, but especially pay attention to the Events page. The top post there will contain your last task.
Happy blogging, Future Falcons!
when we get to Glendale, can each student have a dozen cookies?! - Parker
ReplyDeleteParker, Parker, Parker. . . How about this? When you come to Glendale, bring ME a dozen cookies and I'll share them with you. Deal? PS - Don't forget to do your homework! What school are you from and what grade are you in?
