Title: Sharing Writing Forum
Course: BC - English 7 - 2.0.0.0

Create a forum post to share the survival guide you revised and edited.

After you have created your original forum post, read or view some of the writing that your classmates have shared. Respond to at least three of them with one sentence each. In your response, don’t just say, “I like what you wrote!” Give specific, encouraging feedback on the writing. Here are some examples:

1. “The use of the word ‘glittering’ was very original and it helped me picture what you were describing.”
2. “The idea of using a baseball bat as a back scratcher in your survival guide was hilarious and I could just imagine how awkward it would be to do that.”
3. “I really liked your use of sound effects in your description, because it made me feel like I was there.”

Remember that it is hard to share something that you have written with others, so be kind and thoughtful in the way you respond.
