Post Date       Chapter Block

___________     ____________    I replied to ____________________________/__________________ in 50-100 words.

___________     ____________    I replied to ____________________________/__________________ in 50-100 words.

___________     ____________    I replied to ____________________________/__________________ in 50-100 words.

___________     ____________    I posted an initial response that gives my opinion to the question in 100-150 words.

___________                     Reflection:  Tell us what you think about both the book (50 – 100 words)
                                and the discussion forum format (50 – 100 words).

                I understand that, given the word counts, I must focus on one point in detail to score well in
                content rather than trying to cover many points briefly or generally.

                I wrote my responses in a word document first for printing later when this assignment is due.

                I read over the content grading rubric and reworked my responses if necessary before posting.

                I have checked my word count and stayed within the limits for each response.

                I copied and pasted my responses into the discussion forum as I read rather than waiting until I
                finished the book.  
 
                I have given an accurate word count for each of my postings on my word document.

                I have printed a copy of this checklist and the grade sheet to hand in with my postings.

                I understand that directions for presentation will be given by the teacher when school starts.
