Yellowstone Trip Response

Hi students!

I'm very glad to hear that you had an exciting and memorable trip to Yellowstone. It sounds like you saw many amazing places and animals. In this week's blog response, I'd like you to tell me about a particularly memorable experience that you had on the trip. Your story does not have to be long (5-10 sentences), but it should be about something interesting/exciting/memorable/amazing.  I look forward to reading your responses and thank you for sharing your experiences with me and Dan. Happy writing!

P.S. In the next two days, please check your Week 1  Response for comments from me and Dan.

Week One Blog Question

Hi students,

Welcome to Taiwan High School Summer Program Class Blog! On this blog, you will have the opportunity to write about your experiences here in Missoula and read about those of your classmates. You will also receive feedback on your ideas and writing from your instructors, Josh and Dan. Most of all, the blog will serve as a class journal in which you can chronicle your ideas and experiences during your time in Missoula. Please remember to write complete sentences when you respond, and be sure to edit your responses (check grammar, spelling, punctuation, and spacing errors).

Here are the questions for week one (Due: Monday, July 8th):

Describe your observations about Missoula so far; that is, write about.......
1. something interesting
2. something confusing (you don't understand it)
3. something you will write home about (to tell your parents/friends in Taiwan).

Happy writing!
