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!
Your teacher,

My O-L-W is embrace, because I had to embrace myself, when my grandmother got in a very awful car accident. She broke almost every bone in her body, and I had to just accept the feeling of not knowing if she was dead or not.
ReplyDeleteMy one little word is grit because it is important to have grit in your life. It will keep you trying and never giving up on things. For example, when I was trying to fix something
