Hello everybody the following are some objectives and goals some teachers here at the Centro Cultural Colombo Americano have devised for blogging in our classes. We hope they can help you understand why creating and maintaining a nice blog can really help you in your English learning process. Any comments on them are highly appreciated.

*Be aware of new forms to interact with your classmates.
*Get closer to the goal of thinking in English.
Objectives
I.Reading
*Enjoy and get the most out of reading short or longer texts.
*Improve fluency when reading.

*Help, support or give constructive criticisms to your partners when you read what they wrote.
II. Writing

*Be critical to yourself in the process of writing, without being scared to write or express your ideas.
*Apply as much vocabulary and grammar you study when you create your blog posts.

III. Interaction with your classmates
