These blog pages are all about us sharing what is happening in our classroom. They will share our thoughts, ideas and opinions.
The focus here is on recording our ideas and engaging in the writing process.
It makes our writing more purposeful when we know we are sharing our ideas with others. It is also a great way for us to develop the ability to give and take constructive feedback to improve our own writing. In class we will be discussing how to make our writing better, focusing on both content and surface feature.
Blogging is also a great way for us to make connections with others. We are conscious of being safe online and becoming good digital citizens.
