I got these from Anne Davis who is a teacher and a blogger who has some great ideas. When you get comments like this you can add a comment to your own blog, OR go over to their blog to reply to the comment OR even write a blog entry about it and link to their blog if they have really made you think. In this way we can get good conversations going and do lots of learning to do well in the SAC but it’s also about having fun. Just remember your blog is public so don’t say anything you wouldn’t say to a person’s face.
