Not Really A Post...

Hello Everyone!

Let me start by letting you all know that I am loving this project.  I appreciate the variety we are getting in the posts, the personal voice and flavor you each are contributing, and the general atmosphere being created here.

However, I want to give a few reminders:

1) We are still in the infancy stage here, but I would prefer that your posts be PROOFED in the draft stage and only posted when they are free of grammatical and other syntax errors!  This blog is technically already public (though most of the free-world has no idea we exist!) but in a few weeks I will be making it REALLY PUBLIC by inviting our principle, your parents, your friends, etc. to view what we are creating. I want our blog to reflect the effort, thought, and learning taking place and I want it to be something we can all be proud of. Grammatical errors and simple writing mistakes have the potential to distract from our goal and devalue what we are accomplishing!

Maybe we'll set up some sort of peer-editing format to help with this aspect of the project, but for now, please remember that you can go back and edit your previous posts and check your work before posting in the future. 


2) Please be sure to make relevant comments on each other's posts... it's helpful and fun to give and receive constructive feedback, questions, thoughts, etc. 

3) Keep it up! We have a cool thing going on here!
