when can my child start to blog?
I love this blog!!!
Thanks for this communication tool. I am sure it will help us all to stay on track together as a class.
Any student can blog by leaving a comment on our blog. We will phase into writing on the blog for some homework. Then by the end of the school year, the students should have their own blog:)
Ms.Kelley how do we do our letters on here? Alexia
