What should i do once i'm done with my 1st post/journal entry

Dear year 9,
Your blogs are looking fantastic. It is very pleasing to see that a few of you have already posted the first journal entry.
Below are a few things to help you with your next journal entry/post.
1.       Always start each journal entry with the date as title.
e.g  Jeudi le deux Juin

2.       For every journal entry write 2 lines about the weather starting with:
Aujourd’hui…. / Today…

3.       Use sentences put together in class to write about what you did during that day.

4.       To join the sentences into a paragraph use the following conjunctions/linking words/Time expressions:
D’aboard - First
Puis – Then/ next
Ensuite- Then/ next/ later
Après - Afterwards
Finalement - Finally
Le matin – In the morning
L’apès-midi – In the afternoon
Le soir – At night
A/ vers sept, huit, ….heures - At/ around 7, 8, … o’clock.
Entre 10 et 11 heures – between 10 and 11 o’clock

5.       Give you opinions about how the activities you did or how your day went. To do so use the following:
Positive -
C’était genial – It was great/cool
C’était (très/super/hyper) intéressant – It was (very/super/hyper) interesting
C’était super – It was great
C’était rigolo/ amusant – It was funny/amusing
C’était excellent – It was excellent
C’était très confortable- It was very comfortable.

Negative-
C’était ennuyeux – I was boring
C’était décevant – it was disappointing
C’était  affreux – It was horrible/awful
C’était fatigant – It was tiring
C’était nul- It was lame/worthless
C’était trop long – it was too long


I can’t wait to read about your second day in New Caledonia. Hopefully it will be a good day full of positive opinions/feedbacks.
