Step 1 Monday: Edit Sunday's Post

OMLI rocks. Say it with me... You did an awesome job on your first posts. Every writer knows that writing requires some rewriting. It's fun stuff!
Before you blog about your activities on Monday, do the following: (5 min)

• Find your post in the "Edit" mode.
• Find YOUR group blog!
• Go to New Post in the upper right hand corner.
• Click on Edit Posts.
• Find your post and click on Edit.

• Look at your post and edit it with a partner. (Read it out loud with your partner!)
• Does it have your name and day in the title and labels? 
• Does the title describe the post's content? 
• Do all of your sentences begin with a capital letter and end with punctuation?
• Is your "I" capitalized? It doesn't want to be a small i. Don't hurt it's feelings.
• Is everything spelled correctly? (You can use the spell checker.) 
• Is it appropriate for your audience?  (Smiley faces, slang vs. professional.)
• Can you suggest a way for your partner to develop his/her ideas or to add details? 
• Publish your changes! 

Happy blogging!
