Project You!

Dear Class,

On Tuesday we had our 20th Lesson!

We are making really good progress with creating our Personal Branding Statements and many of you are really reading a lot of books.

I am very happy to see that you are posting the books that you've read on the Extensive Reading Community.

In class this week we reviewed how to add the books you've read to the discussion group.
Here are the basic steps:

• First use the search function at the top-right part of the page to search for your book title

• If you read "Forrest Gump", just type in "Forrest" and if someone has added it, it will appear
• You can also search by using the abbreviation for the book level; type PGR2 and all of the Penguin Graded Readers for level 2 will appear
• Put in your first or last name and a list of all the books you've read will appear (after you have inputed them of course)

• If your book hasn't been inputed then type the following into the discussion subject:
  
• Series/Level * Book Title * Yomiyasui Level * Genre * Total # of words * Rating
• For Example: PGR3 Forrest Gump YL 3.4 HU 10,000 ☆☆☆☆
• Now type the date you finished reading the book, Your name, and a comment into the Message area
• For example: 2006/9/5 Yumiko Toyoshima 映画と比べるとより現実的な内容だったけど、おもしろかった。

• If your book has already been inputed then reply to the last message, input the following, and press the send button:
  
• date you finished reading the book, Your name, and a comment into the Message area
• For example: 2006/9/5 Yumiko Toyoshima 映画と比べるとより現実的な内容だったけど、おもしろかった。
• Now do this for all of the books you've read so far!

I want to thank everyone who has posted the books they read this week.
As of last night, around 80 books, and over 100 comments have been entered!
Let's keep up the good work!

Be sure to bring your Personality Scaling Worksheet results with you tomorrow.
You should know what your strong traits are now and should have gone to the "Project You! Community" and posted them to the discussion: What's your personality? => Scaling => Strong Traits.

Our next step will be to have a one-on-one focus group with a friend, colleague, boss, or superior to discuss your personality traits and see if they agree or can give you some feedback.

Thanks again and see you in class!

Matthew
