Hi Skyler, you have put in a lot of information into your blog and it is really good, I like it when you also included a video so people can watch and interact more with your post.
ReplyDeleteYou explained everything in detail and it makes alot of sense, it is also good that you added a picture so people know which sign is which.
Great job Skyler, keep up the great work.
good work on making it clear on what the different signs mean and do
ReplyDeleteHello Skyler,
ReplyDeleteI like how detailed your explanation was based on all these signs, for example you mentioned where you would find these signs. I like how clear you explained and what they would mean you also described what they look like. Maybe next time with lay out you don't need to separate it that much.But overall it was amazing I got lots of information about signs and the pictures made it obvious and clear what they look like.
Kind Regards
Rieya
