We are excited to be quad blogging with 3 other classes. Each week one of the classes will be the focus for the others - to visit their blogs and to leave comments for the students. After that week another class will be the focus. Our aim is to build a wider audience and to have our students communicate with other Grade 3 and 4 students worldwide.
Schools who have expressed an interest in becoming our blog partners:
Grade 3 - Steven Brown's class at Western Academy Beijing
Grade 3 - Tania Grosz's class at Santiago College, Santiago, Chile
Grade 3 - Louise Lehmann's class 3L at Yokohama International School, Japan: 3L Blog
Grade 4 - Yokohama International School, Japan: 4G Blog
Grade 3 - Neil Ringrose at Quarry Bay School, Hong Kong
Grade 2/3 - Class 6 at St John's School, UK
Because of this we are going to divide up the classes and do quad blogging with one of our other G3 classes here.

For our first week (14th March) 3N are publishing our poems. Students took photos, edited them in iPhoto, wrote a poem about the photo and then composed their own music in GarageBand to match the mood of the poem. All these were then used to make an Animoto video. We invite comments on the following students' poems:
Dylan's Poetry
Katie's Poetry
Charlottes' Poetry
