Welcome to the blog site for Mr. Rendine's Period 1 English class at Abington Senior High School, in Abington, PA. The purpose of this blog is to serve as a class portal to communicate information about the class and to archive course materials (i.e. worksheets, homework assignments, and links the web). It will also serve as a place to discuss important issues regarding the experience of studying literature, ranging from the important of reading in general to specific works of literature we are reading in class. In addition to these purposes, I would also like this to be a place where students are free to voice constructive criticism about class issues in order to help the teacher build a more "user-friendly" course.
Some important things to keep in mind when blogging here:
1) Please keep all comments appropriate, respectful, and relevant to a particular discussion prompt.
2) Please include your name (at very least, your first name and first letter of your last name, i.e. John D.) on all comments you post.
3) Please be timely with your responses. Blog posts later than 2 days from the due date will be rejected.
For security purposes, the teacher will screen all comments before publishing them to the web. Please make sure you comply with the above guidelines to make your posting eligible for publication and grading.
I look forward to an interesting educational experience as we explore the power of technology and the English classroom together.
Happy blogging!
Mr. Rendine
