For your first homework task of the year, you need to set up a Google account, and post a comment at the bottom of this post. Any questions or concerns about the Google account should be answered here.
In your comment, you should say something relevant to English. You could simply let everyone know of a book that you have read recently, and tell us what you think of it. You could provide a link to a relevant website that you have found useful or interesting. You could write a short poem or story. You could share your personal targets for the year in English, and ask for suggestions. You could make a suggestion on how the blog could function. Be creative, and try to respond to others' comments where relevant.

short summary on chapter 1
To Kill a Mockingbird takes place in Alabama during the Depression, and is narrated by the main character, a little girl named Jean Louise "Scout" Finch. Her father, Atticus Finch, is a lawyer with high moral standards. Scout, her brother Jem, and their friend Dill are intrigued by the local rumors about a man named Boo Radley, who lives in their neighborhood but never leaves his house. Legend has it that he once stabbed his father in the leg with a pair of scissors, and he is made out to be a kind of monster.
