Today students will find an interesting, news worthy quotation to post and comment on. This will be a regular activity in this class as these quotes can be used for our school newspaper. Here's the assignment:
1) Find an interesting quotation.
2) Copy that quotation here in our blog.
3) State who said the quotation and give the SOURCE (where you found the quote).
4) Explain, in your own words, what's significant about this quotation.
Good luck!
