Student blogs ..... Check these out!

Some of the E-Team have been busy blogging.  Check out their posts by clicking on the link and give them a comment.

Do you think you are ready for your own blog?  You would need to be giving regular effective comments and posting 1-2 times a week on the class blog.

Quadblogging - what's it all about?

I am waiting eagerly to find out who might be in our Quadblogging Team and where they come from.  Write a comment to tell me what countries you might like the rest of our team to be coming from!

Visit our Blog Posters

Our challenge in Term 2 is to get more people visiting our blog and leaving commnents. 
To do this we might need to advertise our blog - starting with our families. 
One of your ICT challenges is to develop an advertising poster for our blog in Comic Life. 

What skills will you need? 
What workshops will we have to run? 
Who can you get good ideas from...?

ACTION:

Take a look at this poster by Maraki 2012. 

Check out his blog and write him a message to say what is effective about his poster.


Write a comment on this post about what you think we should use for an effective poster.  Try using the Junior School tool - a fist list.  That means one idea for each finger.

Holiday Blog Comment Challenge

Well done to Sophie for being the Super Blog Comment Star as she has just made a comment from home as her first holiday challenge.  I have a prize for the person or family who make the most blog comments over the two week holiday break.

Remember... comments must have...
1.  A positive point
2.  A question or comment on how to improve the post
3.  Your first name and age
4.  Correct spelling and punctuation

Secret Location 4!

I hope this 'Secret Location' is more of a challenge and takes more than one day to solve or I might be running out of holiday photographs.  These are all our own photos so I did not put the name of the owner or link to a website.  Just to be sure:  Photos by Mark & Allana Taylor

Hints:
Same challenge, same comments - remember to use YES / NO questions, check the editing and leave your name. 

Will you be the winner of Secret Location 4?
