Comments for Kids

I was assigned the 2KM's blog at Leopold Primary School. This school is located on the Southern end of Victoria, Australia. This class blog is so amazing because I see how children can interact with the world and spread their new found knowledge to other children and even older people like me. Recently, 2KM had a reading day which looked really cool.

On the newest post on 2KM's blog they talk about what happened on reading day. The teacher, Mrs. McGeady, got the idea form a school in Connecticut. Here is a slide show of the class on reading day.

Mrs. McGeady,

Wow, I wish I could have had a reading day when I was in school! Maybe I would like to read more than I do today. I am a student at the University of South Alabama and I am assigned to your blog. I really have found this blog to be full of information that so many classes can use to make their classroom better. I am studying to be a high school science teacher so if you have some ideas on how to get started on class activities I would love to hear from you. Here is a link to my class blog: edm 310.


Another part of the post was when Bianca created her first Guest Post. Here is the post....


I found this to be very cool to see how beautiful the places were she visited.

Dear Bianca,

This is very impressive! I have never been to the 12 Apostles but it looks like a very interesting place. You did very good on researching and you really do have beautiful places to visit. Keep up the good work.

Last, we have stories from Clancy and Tom. They used Five Card Flickr
to make up a story. They picked five cards and used the pictures from the cards to make up a story.

Hey guys,

You did a great job on these stories. I love how you used the cards to make up a story and then used your imagination do the rest. I hope to hear many more stories from you guys.

  1. Stephen,

    You laid this post out so well that I couldn't help but watch all the movies and voicethread. I followed the links and found all sorts of useful resources. It was so helpful, that I decided to start a list of stand-out links that will be comprised of the resources that y'all blog about in your posts. These of course will only include those links which are not readily available in the instruction manual.

    Thanks for doing such a great job, it feels good to get new ideas!

  2. Fantastic post Stephen. You hit the nail on the head when you said that if you'd had reading day early on you might enjoy reading more today, or something like that. Anyway, that is the great thing about blogging with these young kids, it develops a love for learning early. SS

    Anthony, great idea creating a list of student resource links! SS
