To follow up on my first achievement in AP English, an essay on blogging, I will continue with one of my actual blog posts. This blog post, “Sleep Deprived”, identifies and defines a problem which not only my school faces, but other schools around America as well. Included in this post is the ability to hyperlink, and therefore, establish my credibility. To produce this post, I used critical thinking skills to plan and conduct research to solve this problem. Sleep deprivation is one of the many problems teens face today, and I wrote this blog post directly to BHS to provide what I think is one solution to this problem.
