Okay, back to normal this week. You will post a reply on the blog page of your website.
Topic: Book Reviews. I know what you're thinking -- aren't we done with this? Nope!! I'm hoping that some of you have already read some reviews by your classmates, but if not, now is your chance. What I was most excited about while I was reading the reviews was the variety of books. There were SO many books that I hadn't read, or even heard of before. So...This week, you are to read as many reviews as you can, and write on your blog about 3 books that interest you and why. Remember to use screen names, not real names, and underline the titles of books.

Some people still need to catch up from last week, so we will make the Thanksgiving blog count for this week's Fun Friday. If you have some time and you are looking to blog, come up with your own topic! You could post your own question and see who answers, or you could write about something that you've done recently.

We had quite a few days off last week, and I'm sure a lot of different things happened from crazy bus rides to fun snow days and fabulous Thanksgiving dinners. In your blog this week, tell about one or several things that happened over the snow/Thanksgiving holiday.
If you already posted about your time off, double check it and make sure it has at least 75 words!
