The Outsiders post 1

Here is your first assignment!! Be sure to answer all of the questions! Be creative~ Enjoy!!


The Greasers think of themselves as a family. Who do you consider family? What qualities make up your family? Do you consider only your relatives to be family? If not who else would you include? Do you think the Greasers are family? Why or why not? What qualities do the Greasers have that make them (or don't make them) family?

Happy Posting,

Welcome 9G Students!

Welcome to your brand new, never before used blog space!! Enjoy this space as a place where you can stay connected to English class. (I know you all miss me once you leave my class!) Remember at the beginning of the year when I was rambling on about communicating with your teacher? Well, here is a space that you can not only connect to me, but you can connect to your classmates as well! Use it! Feel free to engage in discussions about what you are reading. (You may opt for some serious Emily Dickinson bashing). Check here for assignments as well. You may be assigned to post blogs throughout a unit. Part of the assignment may be to respond to a classmate's post. Let's start an online discussion about reading!

Happy posting,
Ms. Paulson
