When you think of art, what comes to mind? Do you personally like art? If so, what kind of art? If we think about it, we all like art in some shape or form. For some, art is a beautiful oil painting on canvas. To another, art is expressed through dance, while to another, it is expressed through one's fingers as one molds and shapes new objects made with clay.

Did you know that written text can also be art? All of YOU are to be my new artists...I would like all of you to be artists with the freedom to express yourselves in any way that you would like. Every Sunday evening or Monday morning, I will post the topic for you to write about. Once you have read my topic, you will need to write your responses on your own blog. Your responses ought to be 1-2 paragraphs in length, but you should not spend more than 30 minutes writing them. Be sure to title each blog entry with "Topic #__:" and then your own title.

Next, you will need to comment on your classmates' blogs. Each student needs to leave a 2-3 sentences comment on two other students' blogs in order to receive credit per week.

Your responses and comments will need to be completed by 11:00 p.m. every Saturday. There will be no exception! Therefore, plan on completing this assignment before the Saturday day deadline in order to ensure that you receive full credit, which will be 10 points for each week. I will be leaving a comment on each blog I read to indicate to you that I have read your blog.

On a final note, these blogs are intended to be fun and to allow you to display your creativity. Be adventurous and express yourselves! Although we may occasionally use some of your blog entries for grammar practice, these blogs are primarily focused on content. Nonetheless, aim at your very best for grammatical accuracy. Above all, though, have fun!!

Topic #4: Happiness

What makes you happy?  Is it your family?  Friends?  Money?  Education?  Success?  Without a doubt, we all have a different source of happiness.

This is an old photo, but it is one of my favorites. :)

In my case, it is my family.  Of my family, it is especially my daughter who fills my heart with sheer happiness.  I will be honest in saying that before I had my daughter, I did not quite understand why people took so many photos or posted so many photos of their children.  However, now that I am a mother, I completely understand!  My daughter truly makes me SO happy, and I cannot stop thanking God every day for blessing me with such a gift. 


What about you?  What makes you genuinely happy?
