Work Safety

Hey Civics Class-

Happy Wednesday! Today will be a fun computer day in class.

Part 2) After you finish writing your story, please type it in the comments section of the blog. Remember to change your name to "Anonymous" before you submit your comment.  Because your comment will be anonymous, it would be a good idea to add the names of people in your group to the end of your story.
