Protocols for publishing posts and comments on the blog.

This is a school document and should be treated as such.  Anything posted on this site will be treated the same as anything written or said at school.  If in doubt think "Would I write this in my book at school?"  Posts and comments should be written using our JDIs and appropriate images and language used.  Abbreviated language or slang is not acceptable.

 I encourage you to comment on posts but remember that any criticisms should be positive.  If you think somebody could improve what they have written explain how it could be improved.  For example..."I found it hard to understand what you were saying and think that using punctuation will help next time."

Parents and caregivers are also encouraged to add their comments.  Your experiences are valued and when we are discussing books your recommendations will be greatly received.

Please ensure you include your name when you make a posting.

Thank you

This book is like your reading from a diary. You get to experience what the day in a life of a nerd that becomes a princess is like. She tells you about her day every week. Sometimes her day goes as planed and sometimes is can turn out the opposite of what she wanted.

Dead meat! Moya Simons - Jorjah Harvey

Name: Jorjah Harvey
Title: Dead Meat!
Author: Moya Simons
Book: 11/20

Danny Thompson is always getting into trouble. He manages to lose his baby sister, He gave his mother the wrong present for her fortieth birthday then something awful happens to his parents only wedding photo's. He is the definition of dead meat!

I rate this book a 6/10 because it's funny. I don't personally like this book but, recommend it to those who have done something bad on accident or purpose and want to see what its like for others.
