Week 5A - The Briggsy Awards

Before I get into this week's prompt (which is also your FINAL blog prompt of the semester!), I wanted to remind you guys of a few things for when I grade the blogs this weekend:

• These are due by noon on Sunday.
• Each entry must be at least 100 words to be given full credit.
• I am not grading these for spelling, punctuation, grammar, or capitalization. I'll I'm looking for is to see that you've followed the prompts, written the required length, and occasionally entertained me! 
• These are summative in the informative writing strand.
