Today some of the 1M GEMS moved into new territory with their blogging...the creation of their OWN blogs!!Creating individual blogs for our digital portfolios was a goal we had set for NEXT term, so the children have been incredibly focused on developing the skills needed to blog independently.
Through learning from each other and inspiring each other, they have really taken charge of the creation and uploading of posts this term.
Our Year 6 buddies have been keeping an eye on this rapid rise to independent posting, so today they surprised us when they asked the GEMS if they'd like help creating their own blog folios...
and the answer was a resounding YES!
Having a blog folio is a way for each child to reflect on their learning- share what they know and can do.
The Year 6's, who already have their own blogs, helped the children with the basic design and layout of their blog folio as well as getting up an introductory post.
We aim to have all blog folios created in the next week.
Links to the folios created so far are under OUR LINKS on the sidebar.
The children are incredibly excited about this new phase in our blogging.
We are discussing the idea of running 'blogging workshops' for parents.
We'll let you know when we have finalised the details.
