Reflection Post: Comments on Other Blogs.

During the third quarter we worked on simple machines. Our blog was full with pictures of srews, levers, wedges... We also started working with the Canadian blogs. We read and commented on their posts. Since the 8th grade started blogs, we were assigned to comment on their posts. I think that commenting on others people's blogs was the hardest, since it got hard to understand what they were talking about if we hadn't learned learned what they learned.
Other than that, blogging this quarter was a lot more fun, even if it was more advanced. I can't wait to continue this quarter.

Blogging in 7th Grade Science

November 3rd, 2009
Welcome to the first-ever Blog of 7th Grade Science in Ms. D.'s Class. Each day one student from the class will need to visit the blog and write a summary of what was covered in class (they are the Scribe of the Day), except for those days we have tests or something unrelated to the subject at hand. The Scribe of the day will be responsible for setting up links if we take notes using Google Docs, uploading pictures that are appropriate or showing information about or related to what we are covering. An entry should be helpful to any member of the class who is absent for the day or interesting to folks just reading along to see what we are up to. Be creative, include fun applications that are relevant or helpful and include your own personal flair (font color, font style, pictures, quotes from class or about the science we are covering, animations, jing, vokis, sound, etc.). BUT remember the content of the class takes priority to everything! This will be graded and scribes will be chosen by other scribes.  Specific directions and requirements will be posted on Moodle. Good Luck and Happy Blogging!
