I comment on the website everyday and also sometimes when I forget to do it I will do it the next day. The benefit you have when you comment on the website is you get to see the different opinions of your classmates and you can sometimes practice o your inference skills. maybe see something funny, or sometimes it can give a person a chance to tell about their day. I think it is homework because you have to do it every day but I also see it as a fun task to do.

I aim to comment each day and if I don't succeed I will try to do it in the morning the next day. The benefit of commenting on the website is to give you the chance to catch up on work that we have missed or the things you want to recap on. I think commenting is homework because just like any homework you will get a consequence if left uncompleted.

I try to comment every night or the morning of the next day but if I'm sick and the comment is about something I did not learn about I wont comment. The benefit of commenting on the website or checking the website is that you can check what the homework is and ,if you were sick, gives you a chance to see what others have learned that day and prepares you for the day to come. Commenting on the website can be homework or not homework. It is like homework because you will get a tally if not complete. It is not considered homework if you are checking the website to see what you missed in class if you were sick or if you wont to see what the homework is.

I comment every day, but sometimes I'm so busy I forget to. I think it's good to read the website because there might be some homework that you forgot to write down in your planner, and then you see it on the website. I consider it homework, it has to be done for the next day of school.

I try to comment every day but some nights I just forget to comment or I'm to busy.i think the benefits of reading the website refresh INS your mind of the work you did to today or remembering what your assignments are for the week or term.

I always comments on the class website except when I am really busy with some academies or their homeworks. Benefits are maybe you can reflect yourself reading some notes you wrote, also remind homeworks, and we can learn by watching video clips or playing math games. For the last question, sometimes, I consider, but if that homework's done, I finished it, not really.

I've started to fail on commenting on a daily basis. I think that I could benefit by knowing what we have to do at home, like if you post something that is homework and we didn't know it we could just problem solve and come to school early or do it right then at home if you have what's needed. It can also benefit me if I have a test on math for example I could come on the class site and if there was a video or game from the previous days or even that day I can watch or play it so I can be sure that I know everything for the test. Yes, I consider commenting on the website homework because we have to do it every night and because if we don't do it we get a tally because it's our responsibility to do it.

I comment on the website everyday but when there is no questions I will sometimes skip it. I think the benefit is that we get to talk about how we feel about whatever it is you are asking. It also can be practicing creating a paragraph to fully explain our opinions or answers of a question. I have mixed feelings of calling the website "homework" because I look at it differently where we all can talk to each other and learn from what someone has to say about something you take interests in. It can be homework as for you have to do it everyday because it's a good way to get your brain going and thinking.

I comment on the website everyday and if I forget I will try to do it in the morning. I think the benifit is that you get to come home and kind of talk to and listen to your classmates and there opinions on different things. I think it is homework because you have to come home and do this work and take the time to write out a paragraph but it isn't has hard as math homework or anything😂!!! Bye! See everyone tomorrow!

Mostly all the time I comment on the class website but sometimes I forget because I'm really busy doing my homework. I think the benefit of commenting on the site is for us too communicate, to see what others are saying and also maybe when we comment on the class website we can ask questions about are homework if we don't understand it. I do consider the website as homework because it's are job to comment on the website before the next day. Well, Bye and see you guys tomorrow!

I try to comment every night but other times I will do it in the morning. I do not think it benefits you because it is only showing you the work that you have in your planner. It is your fault if you do not write your planner. I do consider it homework because in all the classes I have been in before this I have never had to check a website and comment. Another weird thing is that teachers say you should be outdoors but we can not we outside when we are stuck in side on a computer. That is my opinion. See you all tomorrow.

I comment almost everyday but sometimes o don't have to because there is no question. The benefit is the we can learn to write more than we usually do and can let us reply to other comments and ask questions.

I comment on the class site pretty much every day. I think that the benefit is so that even if you might have written something in your planner, the website can act as a little check list. What I do every morning is I check my planner to see if I forgot anything and then check the website, in case I missed something in my planner. Also, a good thing about the website is it allows you to sort of have a broad conversation based on a question and it lets you know how your classmates might feel about, or answer the question. I think it is homework because it is our responsibility to comment every night, and when you comment on the site consistently, it kind of feels like a homework task you do, such as reading. Okay, bye!

Hi! I comment on the website everyday! Never missed it once! Not trying to brag though. You could work on typing also checking for your homework. You can also learn from other people sometimes! I consider the website as "Easy Homework," this means that it is homework but its easy to do! Im very organized with my homework if you've seen my planner before. I put a giant line in pen over what i have written to show that its done! Well, see everyone tomorrow! Bye for now...

I try to comment every day and if I don't comment every night I comment in the morning the next day if I remember. The befits of reading on the class website is that you can see the opinions of your classmates and if they use different words you can learn the word and use that word. I don't really consider commenting on the class website homework because I think it's too easy to be homework.

I comment on the website almost every day. Although sometimes i forget too, i usually do it in the morning. If you read the website you might remember your homework if you forgot it. I don't really, consider the website as homework, because you are just typing and answering questions.

1) I comment on the website every day. 2) The benefit of reading the site and commenting is that sometimes Ms. Van puts math videos on so that if you were away you could catch back up and we can see what we have for homework if we forgot our planner or something. 3) I don't consider the website as homework, I think of it as making deeper thinking.

I comment everyday I have this daily plan, I come home from school I go to dance and I come home and do all my homework which is commenting on the website. The benefit you would get is probably because you can express everything you want to say in these comments right here. I do consider it as homework but because we have been commenting for almost 2 years now I just remember now. I do not even have to think about it anymore.

I comment every day, if it's Friday and I forget to comment then I'll do it the next day. And I think it is homework because you do it every day and you do it at home.

I comment every day sometimes I foget but other than that everyday. I think it's useful because if you forget your planner at school you can just read the website. I do consider the website homework because if we don't do it we get a homework tally.

I comment on the website as often as I can. I think that from reading to site and commenting I get to see my homework and get reminded. Also I do some of my homework. I do consider the website homework. See you all today.

Everyday I try my best to get the blog done but if I'm really sick sometimes I don't do it. It is useful because if you forget your planner at school you can always check the website and for a heads up of what is going to happen in the future. Well, to me the website is homework because you have to do it everyday and if you don't you might get a tally. See you all tomorrow! :D

Personal experience of my first half day of diving instruction, including a first dive. "... free to explore while keeping close by. We swam gradually deeper until I had my first aquatic encounter, which was with a lizard fish. I hadn't noticed it until I was about 2 feet away, when it startled from its almost buried or well camouflaged position in the sand. It darted a few feet ahead and as this was on our course I kept on swimming. This turned into a magical game of 'tag' where I would swim to within a foot or two of the fish and it would dart ahead again. After three of four goes at this ..."
