Students who visit my blog are encouraged to discuss the postings with their parents and families, and then post comments of their own. Every month I will select one student whose comments most clearly demonstrate critical thinking, intellectual curiosity, and the ability to establish an argument and support it with evidence.
The winner will be announced as Student Blogger of the Month, and a posting of their creation will appear on this blog. In addition, they will discuss their writing over lunch with me at a local eatery of their choice.
Many thanks to Ms. Peters for supporting this idea and for encouraging her students to write for real-world purposes.

I really miss Ms. Peters's journalism class, I thinks it's a good idea to have an incentive for good blog comments!
Thanks for commenting. I will pass this information on to Ms. Peters.
