 Someone is Watching You  I continue to be amazed at the power of our big blogging buddies at the University of Regina. Each morning, I show the students the comments that were made the night before, putting them up on the Smartboard at the front of the class. There is a common theme to these comments--some positive remarks along with some suggestions for improvement. This morning we noticed that one of the buddies had not started her sentence with a capital letter, even though remembering to use a capital letter was one of her comments to my student. My children all thought this was quite funny. This afternoon as the students blogged, another student wrote “You for got to make a. Kapidl I no your tring to do a wundrful gob .Tri to kep on going”. (For those of you who do not speak emerging writer, it says “You forgot to make a capital. I know you’re trying to do a wonderful job. Try to keep on going.” This is a perfect parody of the kind of comments that the “big” blogging buddies make. The power of modeling!
