Hello Room 3,
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful that you can learn about a country so far away, look at its natural and human features, and then communicate with a whole class of students in that place. Isn't having a class blog just terrific for that?
We have enjoyed our class blog so much. It was new to us at the start of Term 2 so we've had ours up and running for 7 weeks. We have been communicating with classes in England and Malawi in Africa. You'll have to check out our blog. We are still learning but loving it so far.
We are just outside Hobart, Tasmania in Australia. Our school is a Kinder-Gr6 primary school of over 300 students. Our school is in a large suburb but only a few blocks from the beach and from the River Derwent.
Have a great Friday and thanks for sharing your learning with us.
Mrs E and the 3/4 Bayside Learners.
