Me, you, and the Gods
Each of us is, in my opinion, has a God-like feature. Greek Gods to be exact. For example, you are smart. Obviously, you're an Athena kid. Good with gardening. Demeter kid. I could go on, but I'll stop. Have you ever wondered what kid you would be if you were admitted into Camp Half-Blood? I think that would be cool. Compare yourselves to other Gods and maybe you will find your "Godly parent".
Zeus- God of the sky, ruler of the Heavens, king of the Gods,
Hera- Goddess of marriage, co-ruler of the Heavens, I believe and queen of the he Gods
Poseidon- God of the sea
Hades- God of the Underworld
Demeter- Goddess of the harvest
Athena- Goddess of wisdom and battle
Artemis (You have to be a Hunter to like, follow her, I don't know.) Goddess of the Hunt, moon, and forest, I think
Apollo- God of the sun
Aphrodite- Goddess of beauty
Dionysus- God of wine
Hermes- God of traveling, god of trickery and theft, messenger of the Gods
Hephaestus- God of blacksmith
Ares- God of war
So, compare yourselves, maybe leave a comment on what your "Godly parent" is. I think mine is Athena. But it would be cool if I could be a child of Hades or something... I nearly forgot Ares! I bet he would burn me in a heartbeat. Bye peeps and have fun!

The Art and Aspirations of a Commenter
I believe in the power of a free exchange of ideas. I also recognize that words or access to
some information can be of harm to others, intentionally or unintentionally. As a
commenter, I therefore aspire to participate responsibly in the great online conversation
by:
* treating all bloggers with respect.
* seeking first to understand what is being said.
* celebrating another's accomplishments.
* using school appropriate language.
* rephrasing ideas in the blog that made me think, made me feel, or helped me learn
to let the blogger know his/her voice has been heard.
* commenting specifically and positively, without criticism. If I disagree, I will
comment appropriately, politely stating my perspective.
* being mindful always that I may be a role model to my audience, especially if they
are younger than I.
* making no reference to, link to, and/or giving access to any information that may
be inappropriate for a school setting.
* asking at least one question in my comment with the hopes of continuing a
conversation and deepening thinking.
* using a triple check before submitting any comment: Would I be happy to have my
mother read this comment? My grandmother? My favorite teacher?
