    Hi Carrie,
    Overall I think your blog looks good and seems to have everything that we needed to provided. I would try just having the important information needed on the child tabs like the rubrics and maybe the due dates so it doesn’t seem like an over bearing amount of information. The images used in your heading and background help bring people in and is very inviting and really shows people how nice of a person you are. Again, great job on the blog development!

    It looks like you have developed your blog with all of the tabs. I look forward to working with you during your junior internship experience.
