Learning With Others

Hello Grade Fives.

We will begin our new blog today! We will continue with this blog as our weekly check-in, and we will use our new blog to connect with other learners, outside of our classroom.

Please go to the blog site: http://classblogmeister.com/blog.php?blogger_id=228800

Today, in your comment, just let me know when you have checked out the new blog and you are ready to begin work on your blog entry.

It sounds like you are as excited as I am about using this new blog! So let's begin and remember to have fun playing while we learn with others.

Love Mrs. French

Meeting New People in New Ways

Dear Grade Fives,

Very soon, we will begin participating in a new blog. You will be ‘meeting’ students from at least one other classroom. Mrs. Tunnell teaches grade four and five in Penticton and we will be working on some collaborative activities with her class.

Please go to http://classblogmeister.com/blog.php?blogger_id=162809 and then to the "Division 2" link under "My Classes & Students. Please read a few of the students’ submissions. You will write and submit your own piece on “Seven Random Facts” over the next two weeks.

In your comment to me today, please share your thoughts about getting to know other students through a blog.

As always, I look forward to reading your thoughts.
Love Mrs. French
