Every
year for the past five years I have been
most fortunate to work with students on blogging and how it affects their
literacies. You all have been a fantastic class and I have admired your perseverance
and your joy in learning.
Last
week when we were having the Gizmo Talk with your high school Canadian blogger
friends I loved the way Aichelle ended the session. She asked this profound
question:
"How
does blogging advance your learning as a fifth grade student?"
Now
Eddie gave an excellent answer on the podcast. (see previous post for the podcast) I was soaring inside though
because I knew each of you could answer that question so well. I am so proud of
you.
You
have been a most amazing group! I know that in the future I will be reading
something you have written or something written about you and your
accomplishments. It may be on blogs or other media but I think you will make
your voices heard in good ways that will make a difference in our world.
Here's my prediction for the future......
Remember to read, read, read....
Then reflect, think, contemplate, and
ponder.....
And write,write, write or blog, blog, blog!!!
I would like to say a special thanks to every parent. Your children have been
an absolute pleasure to teach.
