Comment Guidelines





 

Always start with a Greeting including the person's name.

Hello, Hi!, Dear,

The Body is where you write your comment:

"A one-point comment is a general comment that doesn't add very much to the post. Example: I like your blog. Please visit mine! A two-point comment adds something to the comment conversation. A commenter might compliment the writer in a specific way or add new information. Another idea is to make a connection. Maybe the post reminds you of an experience that you've had. Share that connection!  Try to end your comment with a relevant question. That way, an interesting conversation can develop."

A Great Comment:
- contains a compliment,
- causes a reflection,
- uses school appropriate language
- has been proof read.

Includes one or more of the following:
- asks a question,
- makes a connection (to an idea or links to an example),
- piggy backs on an idea,
- restates or summarizes the idea/s in the post.
- creates the need for a reply.

A comment never includes personal information: last name, age, school, phone number, date of birth.

Always end with a Closing:

Good bye, Cheers, Your friend, Smiles, Sincerely

DON'T Forget your Signature, use your first name only!

Happy Commenting!
