Blogging at Home

Please keep blogging from home (sign in as a parent guest, password room222- don't forget to leave a signature so we know who you are). The kids love to see parents' comments (thanks Mrs. T.) when we get on there at school! The most recent posts are all about the kids favorite animals. Some children had time to post images from google images. But if you want to add a picture of your own pet to go along with their post just put it in the comment. You can do that by right clicking on a picture (it must be saved somewhere online like snapfish) and selecting "copy image location". Then when you are on the blog you can select "img" and paste the code in the first box. It will ask you to title your picture but the title doesn't appear. I have commented myself on a few to give examples of how pictures can appear in comments.

Also, I LOVE that so many kids are posting from home. It gives them a great opportunity to extend their learning and to share a personal side of them (check out the trains and trips that have been blogged about). It also gives them time to read through other students' blogs and comment. We always seem to run out of time to do EVERYTHING so thank you for giving them the opportunity at home!
