Throughout the year you will have several opportunities to use this blog for language arts and social studies assignments. For those of you who don't know what a blog is, well, "blog" is short for "web log." Web is the same as the Internet, and a log is a journal. A web log or blog is a journal that is stored on the web, instead in the top drawer of your night stand or under a pillow on the sofa.
