Do You Have a Blog?

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Ask learners about their personal writing habits, such as whether they keep a journal or a blog, or if they'd ever want to. Though this is not a fully developed lesson, you can use this article and question to provoke discussion and encourage your class to write. Perhaps you can use it to create individual blogs or even a class blog.
