Keep Writing! Don't Let It Stop!
Are you tired of writing about things the teachers ask you to write about? Isn't it just nice to be able to write about whatever is on your mind and have real readers appreciating your thoughts and ideas? Why don't you make use of your blogs to do so? It is just like a diary with YOU as the MISTRESS of your own blogs. Therefore, YOU are the one who decides what you would like to talk about and how you would like to talk about it. You can even include pictures and your voice in your blog! The more often you write in English, the better and faster you'll be in doing it. I suggest that you make at least one entry each week. And in order to make it a more effective practice to improve your writing, you should aim at writing 200 words in each entry on the same topic -- however, of course, this is an ideal. The most important of it all for this practice is that you enjoy writing. Also, most poems and rhymes aren't this long.
Don't know where to start? Well, here are some ideas for you. You can write about something unusual that happened to you that day and things and people you like/dislike/feel strongly about. You can also talk about what you think about a book, a movie or the news, places you enjoy going to, etc. You can even write poems, rhymes or stories in your blogs. I hope you'll enjoy working on your blogs.
Have fun writing!

Dear Ada,
Congratulations! Your Class Blog looks wonderful. I like your introduction post to your class; it's very inspirational for many EFL/ESL teachers and students in the wold. You are indeed a creative, passionate teacher. I'm going to visit some of your students' blogs and post comments.
I have also visited your website, and I think it's more than excellent. I think your students are very lucky to have such a brilliant, kind, generous teacher.
BTW, try to join Webheads, during a live text-chat session at:
