1. Make sure you have a "Snazzy Blog." See previous posts. Your blogs need to have the requirements if you want an "A." All other grades will be assigned based on what you have completed.

2. Post your Everyday Photo poem and Personal Photo poem with pictures. Photos for the Everyday Photos can be found on this blog. Remember to cite your sources using MLA standards. I am the artist for all photos except "The Scream" by artist Edmund Munch.
