November is Family Blogging Month

Ms. Tulbure and her students  to share what they are learning and experiencing. In an effort to include more family members in our online community, we are proclaiming: 


November is Family Blogging Month!




Each student made a list of their family members. After looking through the archive, students selected specific posts tailored to the interest of a particular relative. 








We're inviting everyone to comment: moms, dads, brothers, sisters, grandmothers, grandfathers, uncles, aunts, and cousins. 
We welcome friends and pets, too!





Students will be inviting their family and friends to participate in a conversation! 
Maybe we'll get some 2-point comments

(We frequently evaluate the comments that our blog has received. In order to earn the 2-points, a comment must be error-free and add something to the post.   Many of Ms. Tulbure's third graders have already met the challenge!)



If you don't know what to say, here is a video made by Mrs. Yollis' third graders.
