How to Post Comments at Schoolsville

Here are some simple directions on how you should post comments at Schoolsville:

1. Go to the bottom of the blog post and click on the underscored words that indicate the number of comments (to the left of the mail envelope).
2. Type your comment (or copy and paste your comments from a Word document) in the box that reads "Leave your comment."
3. Choose an identity by clicking the circle that reads "Name/URL." When you do, a box will open in which you'll leave your initials followed by a space which will be followed by your section color. For instance I might leave the name "JF blue"(John Fiorelli, blue class) if I were a student in the blue section.
4. If you have the same initials as someone else in your section, then write out your full first name as in "johnf blue."
5. Then click the box to "publish your comment." Your comment will not be immediately posted, but a message at the top of the page should say that "your comment has been saved." I moderate the comments, meaning that I'll check them for their appropriateness before I post them.

NOTE 1:it's always good practice to compose your comments in a Word document that you can edit (before you copy and paste into the comment box) and then save your responses for printing at the end of the marking period.

NOTE 2: unless instructed differently, comments should run a minimum of 25 blog lines or 200 words.

NOTE 3: sometimes, you'll be given a blog post specifically for your section color, so you must post your comments there, still indicating your initials and section color.
