Here is my blog portfolio for EL 150. I've never blogged before, and I'm surprised how much I've gotten into it. Blogs are amazing in that they allow our class to have long discussions that we would never have had time to have in class, so I feel like I get a lot more out of the readings than I would normally.
Coverage:
Here are my blog entries for all the readings we've had in our class so far.

Chera's blog on Hamilton, 112-149
Kayla's blog on "The River"
Last but not least, my wildcard blog entry is my blog on "Bernice Bobs Her Hair." It's an early assignment, but it represents all the excitement that I get whenever I can come up with a theory or a connection between readings that I don't think has been addressed in other people's blogs. When I'm at my blogging best, I come up with original ideas that help spark further discussion.
That's all my blogs so far. Hopefully, they'll only get better from here!
