The 6th Sense

So, I have been playing today and think I have figured out how to make an animated mini-me called an avatar.   It is a lot of fun.  Not sure how to save it yet, so I will see if I can load it as an image for you all to preview.  If it works, let me know what you think. 

Ok, so I know you are all on summer vacation, but I also know that a number of you are out there still checking out things on our website.  Why don’t we blog this summer?  I am getting ready to leave on vacation this Sunday and would love to have you all follow me on my trip.  So, if you are out there, send me your thoughts.  What are you up to?  How is summer going?  What are you doing to pass the time?  Hope to hear from you all soon!

Well, after reading your posts, I thought we should go ahead and blog about upcoming events.  So next week is spirit week and it is for a good cause.  We are having pirate pride day, hat day, sunglasses day, pj’s, and our class choice, Freaky Friday.  I think that will be the best day of the week.  What I want to know is what do you think will be your favorite day and why?  Also, what do you plan to wear on Freaky Friday?  Who is going to be the most outragious?  Let’s have fun with this.  Signing off and going home,

So, Jezabel wants everyone to share their book club experiences and recommend some new books.  Here’s your blog Jezabel!  We need some ideas of new books to share on PNN.  Let’s hear about what you are reading…

Ok, so it has been a long time since we have blogged.  That is my fault, but let’s get back to it.  I want to hear about your writing.  Where in time did you send the adventure club kids?  What are you researching and how is it coming?  Do you need some writing ideas from your classmates for a choice piece?  Let’s get talking and sharing with each other.  And let me know how I can help you!  I am so proud of all of you and how far you have come with your writing this year.  Keep up the good work!

Mrs. N

Hey everyone!  Welcome to our new and improved blog!  I thought it would be fun to hear your ideas on topics for us to blog about.  Get your brains flowing and start blogging.  I know how much you all like to yak, so now is your time to spill it.    We can blog about anything as long as there is some educational value.  Who knows, maybe your idea will be on my next post.  Merry Christmahanukwanzica to all, and to all a good blog!  Mrs. N

Wow! I am so impressed with all of you who are loving The Report Card! Why don’t you chat with each other about it? Let’s have a discussion just about this book. There are no rules, respond back to each other. Maybe, I will even throw in a comment or two. Just discuss and make it meaningful! Hasta la Pasta!!! Mrs. N

Wow! I can’t believe what a great job you all did on your first blog! With all the responses, I can tell this is going to be one of our class favorites. Please remember, that when you are posting a book recommendation, to include the title, author, and genre. That way, when other kids read your recommendations, they can go right to the library and check it out.

Second Quarter is only a week away, and it is already time to start thinking about our next genres. We will be reading Realistic Fiction and Historical Fiction.

This quarter, as a class, we are reading books from the autobiography and science fiction genres. An autobiography is a true story or memoir written by the author about him/herself. Science Fiction books are stories that often tell about science and technology of the future, involve partially true fiction laws or theories of science, and they take place in either the future, in space, on a different world, or in a different universe or dimension.

Now that you have finished reading your chosen text, please take time to share with others about your book. Which genre is your book? What is the title and who is the author? Give a short review of the book (main highlights), and tell us why you liked or disliked the book. Support your answers with details from the text. Maybe someone else out in cyberspace will enjoy your recommendation enough to want to read the book, too!
