Blog Assignment:

I believe that my best blog post is the Krista Ramsey one called Locking into the Magic of Legos.  I put a lot of effort into this bog because I thought that Krista Ramsey is a very important person who writes about voices of things that don’t get heard that she thinks need to be. I think that the quote I found is able to show voice and shows a unique style of writing.   "Legos let them claim the two things adults don't even realize they need: space and silence." Parents think Legos can just take up room or be an annoying toy that hurts when you step on it because they are spread all over the floor. Krista Ramsey wanted to prove that Legos are not just a toy they have a meaning and give kids and parents some space and silence. Her goal is to get messages out in a nice and an easy way for people to understand different types of scenarios.

This column that I chose has elevated diction because of the word claim which is a more elevated word then taken. I think the diction used was able to enhance Ramseys voice. Syntax is where you use punctuation, sentence length, etc. I think that my sentences are medium length with just the right amount of punctuation. I used commas, quotation, and periods mostly, but there may be some other things that I have used. Normally columns have all different lengths of sentences but I decided to keep it all one.
