Blog Comments Success Criteria

Over the last month we have been commenting on our friends blogs on the other side of the world.

We had these hints and tips to support us when writing comments.

However we still found we were making the odd mistake when we made comments.

So we looked at creating a success criteria.

We keep a copy handy by our digital devices so we can check in with our achievements when blogging.
