Learnerblogs is not going to receive any more updates or improvements according to the edublogs admin team, so I have exported this blog across to one I can have now until I retire as long as I continue teaching grades 6/7. Many thanks to those students, teachers and parents who have commented here, but feel free to visit us on our new blog at edublogs. It will look exactly the same, will still have your comments and posts but will have a new URL instead. It will also make it easy for me to make blogs for individual students during term 2.
For those classes and teachers who have included us on your blogroll, please change our URL so new bloggers come to our new blog site.
Do you have a hobby or interest that you are very passionate about? Is there an author whose books you always read? Well why not make a comment here on this post telling Miss W about your interest and she might invite you to be a guest blogger here on the class blog. Only write a few lines saying why you would like to write about your interest. Remember when you do become the guest blogger, you can include some copyright free pictures about your interest. I don’t know yet how to insert a video or slideshow in a blog, so if anyone can help with that, it would be great.
Are you interested in taking part in some competitions that were recently advertised by the Tasmanian Education Department?
Eureka This looks at excellence in science so if you are a sleek geek like Dr Karl and Adam Spencer, then this might be for you.
Tasmanian Science Talent Search theme this year is Planet Earth: Planet of Change
Wakakirri using performance and visual arts by yourself or in a group
Info technology chance to show off your technology talents if you are in grade 7-10
Expedition in Papua interested in following a kayak journey in Papua?
Tournament of Minds check with Mr Richardson if you have a team wanting to enter this fantastic competition.
I wonder what types of technology your parents, older brothers and sisters, neighbours or other relatives use in their work place? Do they blog, use wikis, mobile phones, podcasts etc? You might like to create a survey or questionaire and give your responses in a graph. Ask them questions on this topic, then either the student or the parent can write a comment back in this blog.
