Blog #2 -- Social Media

Hello, 8th graders!  I hope you have had a restful weekend, and you are ready for your summer reading tests this week!

This blog post deals with "Social Media".  It seems that social media rules out lives!  From Twitter to Instagram to Snap-Chat to Facebook, we tend to communicate with one another 24/7!  We also constantly watch Vimeo, Vines, and YouTube!  It just never ends!



What are your thoughts about social media?  Are you involved in it?  If so, what sites?  If not, why?

Do you think communicating via social media is a good thing?  

Do you think people can actually become addicted to social media sites?  

What are some of the dangers of social media and teenagers?  (or adults?)  

Do you think social media can be used for good?  For bad?

In order to get 5 extra bonus points you need to respond in a full 5 - 8 sentence summary paragraph, responding to the above questions! (Responses with incorrect format will not receive the bonus points!) 

Blog entries should be posted no later that September 3rd!
