Leaving comments is an important part of blogging. For this task you will go to the following locations and look at the work that is on display.You need to choose two of the links that are below and leave a comment on a piece of work at that persons class page or individual page.
When you leave a comment proof read through your comment before it is saved, check that there are no spelling mistakes and make sure that you leave your first name only, Room 8, Melville Intermediate, Hamilton, Waikato (and New Zealand if its overseas).
If you are not sure get Mr Webb to check your comment before you publish it! Remember that your comment needs to be positive and think about what you learn t and enjoyed by reading the post!

@ Jahnard Room 8 Melville Intermediate School,
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting our blog and for leaving a comment about our Sports Day PhotoPeach. We hope you will come back and visit again. :-)

@ Bjork,
ReplyDeleteThe comment that you left on our third grade blog is much appreciated! I like how your teacher is teaching all of you about how to comment and how to be a part of an online community. That is an important skill in today's world.
In addition, I like how you proofread your comment. Your sentence started with a capital letter and had punctuation at the end. That kind of attention in the writing process is important.
:-)

Did we get the right time? Let me know!
Your friends,
Mrs. Yollis' students

Dear Room 8, You people are in for a great year with Mr Webb. It is very special to have a teacher who includes online environments such as blogging in the your learning opportunities. You will get to meet lots of interesting and wonderful people this year as you make connections through your blog. Enjoy it all.
