This site contains the blogs of students in Mrs. Silveri’s AP Literature and AP Language & Composition classes at Mt. Zion High School (Jonesboro, GA).
All students are required to post each week. Our blogs articulate our responses to the literature as well as chronicle our growth from classroom discussions. Our postings are responsible, reflexive writing in action.
See how Isaiah Anderson’s (one of my 4th period AP Lit babies) response to the NYTimes Learning Network “The Choice” blog about the Penn State sexual abuse scandal inspired a whole new article! I am so proud!!! Room 110 #winning

Enjoy!
Dear students of Ms. Silveri,
How wonderful to see you all posting to this site. Do you know about Poetry 180? It is an initiative sponsored by the Library of Congress that will send you a poem a day for every day of the school year. Here’s a link to today’s first message for 2010-2011: http://tinyurl.com/ddyo9t
To a wonderful year of literature and writing!

I wanna give my apologies to you because of my slacking behavior. After doing the blogs, I realized that I’ve missed so much, and I sometimes forget that I love to write and express my personal opinions. So from this day forward, the year of 2011, I’m going to make sure that I wll do well in your class, and work harder to achieve in your class, and I ask for your forgiveness for put you through troubles for my late blogs. It won’t happen again. I promise
Sincerely Your Student,
Laura Augustave
