Dear students,
What exactly is a blog, and why are we using it in 4th grade?
We will use the blog to communicate about different things we discuss in
class. Our online post will extend our conversations from class, and
allow us to see what other classmates are thinking as well.
We will use the blog for many different things. Often I will write a
post, and you will be asked to respond to it for homework. For example,
we might post about different reading strategies, or use it to respond
to poetry in the spring. However, this year I would also love to have
students write a blog post, and classmates can respond to their post.
Today, I am interested in your thoughts about the blog. Please answer the following questions:
1. What excites you about the blog?
2. What questions do you have about the blog?
3. What ideas do you have for future blog posts or using the blog?
I look forward to reading your first blog response!

ReplyDeleteI think that this is a better way we can get to know each other. Way better that we have now. I think this will be an adventure similar to way to talk to others. One of my questions is, that could you like use you e mail and stuff on this without having to go to to a different website? I would like to know that. I think that if we have any questions about like homework than this would be great communication thing to do.
ReplyDeleteI think it is very fascinating to have a blog because you can send a responce in a different way than email.
ReplyDeleteMy question is that can you only send it to one person?

I think in the book Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, I think Harry is very sneaky because he sneaked into Hogsemeade which is the best candy store without being seen. I think he will grow to be even more of a mysterious person.
