Wells' English 10 Goes Global with Online Journals
Hello sophomore English students! Welcome to our new blog spot! As you know, our course is designed to give you Regents level literacy skills with a focus on literature from around the world. As a way to allow us to journal outside of the confines of the one period class, I have decided to implement online journals, a.k.a. the blog. In this way you will be able to get credit for your English class journal, connect with the world using 21st century technology, have a more lightweight book bag, and help the environment by going paperless! I will be continually adding elements to this blog, so stay tuned.
