Making blogging connections

This has been an exciting day!! Our blog has gone international!! We have linked with a class in Morocco and a class in Wales :)



My kids were thrilled to see comments on their posts from children in other countries. We had a few glitches (to be expected when you have 3 people in 3 different countries all trying to do this via email :) but now we are up and running.

Tomorrow we will start reading and commenting on our international friends' posts - and this weekend we'll be writing a "get to know us" post.

If you're interested in doing something similar look for a post on Global Teacher Connect at the beginning of May. Krystal from Lessons from the Middle will be blogging about this :)

    1. I've been wanting to link up with other classes so I was thrilled when I saw Krystal's original post on GTC. Here's hoping lots more classes link up! :)
