Use this space to reflect on any of your learning in school, or out of school. What are you most proud of this term? Is there something you have learnt about out of school? Is there something you have learnt to do?

It’s fantastic to have a conversation in this way and in this way you are being METACOGNITIVE. Of course the better the comments the better the conversation. I’m seeing some good reflections and comments. Keep writing about what you’re doing in class and outside of class to develop your anthology. If you find something on the internet that might be a good reasource for this assignment you can post about it on your blog and do the hyperlink thing that you learnt a few lessons ago. Keep reading other class members blogs and hopefully get ideas if you’re stuck.

Have you selected your best haiku for your anthology? Are you happy with your sonnet? Are there any difficulties, or really good things you could write about?

Please make comments on one or two other students’ blogs this week – remember to say something about what they’ve written. Two words are banned from comments: “cool” and “boring”. Hope you enjoy reading others blogs and writing your own.

To make this a good learning tool it is expected that you will write four blog entries by the end of term and comment (briefly) on eight of your classmates’ blogs. Over the five weeks that we do this you will be writing about the the things you are learning in ERE, especially the process of making your poetry anthology. How long you make your entries is up to you, just make sure you write once a week for the five weeks. You can write at school or from home and you can also read your classmates’ blogs either way. Good luck with your learning and reflection!
