Room 3’s Blog

I’ve just rediscovered this post I wrote in week 2 of the this term, so here it is!

Check out our new Year 7 bloggers listed under the blogroll. These students set up their blogs last week with many of them very quickly able extra ‘bling’ to their blogs!

Some of the goals we have for our class bloggers this year are:

Watch this space to hear from this week’s student contributors – Ivan and Naveen.

Knowing that you are a little bit lazy I have copied Jo McCleay’s latest post here so that you can respond to some of her students work.

We had a great lesson today in another year 9 class where I was team teaching with Bernie and getting the class set up with blogs. They are now a going concern and you can find them here. There was so much fun in the class as the students were figuring out all the cool things you can do. Some of the interesting new bloggers are the writers of Annabelle’s News and The Original Hoganbogan. I also love Sarah’s take on her life, and Olivia’s sense of humour. It would be great if you could stop by and encourage some of these “awesome” young writers (I’m even beginning to sound like them). I just love their energy and enthusiasm and the way they took to this even though they had to try three times. I know some student bloggers will be starting to blog again in the next few weeks, so let’s get the links happening. I really like the way that Lynne has started sending the “8 random facts meme” through her class of student bloggers. Maybe we could make some links that way.

A large number of students in the class have just created blogs for their class work, particularly English work. We have listed them on the side of this blog. They would love to hear comments from any visitors to this site.
