4th Grade Blogging Fever!!

Hi Friends and Family,

We have started to blog!! Check out our awesome blogs by scrolling down under “Class Blogs” (located under school calendar) and click on your favorite 4th grader’s blog. We are going to showcase our interests and learning this year on our blogs and share them with friends from around the world! Feel free to leave a comment or two! We LOVE to get feedback on what we are doing!

For more on blogging, watch the video below!

This coming Wednesday, November 11th, is Veteran’s Day. For your next blogging assignment, find out who is or was a veteran in your family. Write a post about how people in the armed forces (army, navy, marines, etc.) protect our country and help it stay the great country that it is. See if you can find some clip art to use in your article that goes along with what you are talking about. We will learn how to put it into our blogs.

Student Blogs Are Coming!

kidsSoon you will see a new feature attached to our classroom blog: individual student blogs!  The purpose of this activity is to promote connective reading and writing, cooperative learning, and responsible digital citizenship.   Our students are excited to have a platform in which to share their learning, talents, and abilities with other students.

Parent Permission & Guidelines

A letter was sent via email explaining our new student blogs.  In order for your student to participate, please read through the letter, as well as, the student rules for blogging.  Be sure to discuss with your student why these rules are important.  Please print both copies, sign them, and send them in to school.
