Blogging rules and etiquitte

Keep safe:

  • Do not use last names.

  • Do not give too much information about yourself. For example write "I play for a local soccer team." Do not write "I play for the Hamilton North Junior Rugrats soccer team."

  • Never give out your address, email address or phone number.

  • Do not post photos of other people without teacher approval.


Write Quality comments:



  • It is OK to disagree with the author of a post but when writing a comment always give a reason why you disagree.

  • One word comments are not useful. Explain yourself and give constructive messages.

  • Make compliments to the writer of the post in an interesting way that makes them feel special. Even ask questions.

  • Make relevant comments to the post you are writing about.

  • Always be considerate of others.

  • When writing a post it must be put to draft before posted so that your teacher can conference with you. Read the comment or post allowed and edit before saving as a draft.

Some ways we can begin our comments:



  • Your post made me think that...

  • I discovered/learnt...

  • This makes me think....

  • Your post made me form an opinion about...
