We’re starting to write blogs regularly in our class right now, and I wanted to provide some examples of various different types of entries you could do. Blogging, as you will read on this page, is about prompting conversation. It is an interaction between you and your audience in a way that Writers’ Workshop can’t be, because with a blog, your audience can respond and make comments or ask questions.
So here are some examples of different types of blog posts written by past students. All of them have areas of strength and areas for growth, but they can provide ideas for you as you are beginning your first blogs. After you read the page above, check these out – and feel free to take a wander through other bloggers from previous classes, or from our Writing class blog.
