Primary Blogging Community

This week I am excited for our class to begin a project called the Primary Blogging Community.  I signed us up and we have been partnered with 1st grade classes in Seattle, Washington; Rochester, Michigan; and Hong Kong, China!  This project lasts for 5 weeks and will give us the chance to connect with other 1st graders across the US and across the globe.  The first week we will learn about our new partners by reading some of their class (teacher) blog posts and learn how to write good comments.  Then for each of the next 4 weeks, everyone focuses on 1 of the classes and reads their student blogs.  The kids will be able to leave comments for each other about things we post about our schools, our learning, and where we live.  I think this will be a fantastic chance to make some connections around the world!
