Bitmoji Image Have Fun

Hey Room 14,

It is now the holidays - enjoy a break and keep yourself busy!!

I know I have been doing puzzles, board games, a bit of Netflix and some reading, ohhh and cleaning (great time for some spring cleaning).

In this post, I have a few things...
- Blogging Challenge Task - Week Two
- 100 Word Challenge
- 30 day photography challenge

You don't have to do any of these but I thought I would put it out there to give you something to do if you are looking for something.
Comment below and let me know you have checked in!!

Missing seeing you all :)



This week there are four tasks to learn about commenting STUBC

It's all about commenting which we are getting better at as we give peer feedback weekly to others in writing so let's jump on to different people's blogs and give them feedback as well.  Think of BEG (sorry, don't have a photo of the posters at home) but also some other good visuals below.

How to write a quality comment Kathleen Morris  

More examples:
  • Miaomiao included a cute comic where a dolphin and turtle learn about quality commenting.
  • Mrs. Yollis made a wonderful infographic using Canva and Bitmoji to share her expectations for quality comments.
  • “Dr. Hagle” and “Sarah Gold” used Puppet Pals to explain quality commenting using a Fairy BLOGmother!
  • Rajyashori used emojis to explain her commenting guidelines.
  • Brenton used some specific examples of what makes a good comment.
  • Karl explained a great “3 C and a Q” approach to commenting.

Lastly, please add your blogs URL to this sheet so people can get commenting on your blog!

Week 6 Blogging Task

Hi team, 

Friday was swimming sports and it was an awesome day.  I loved seeing everyone having a go and getting involved.  Well dobne for Konini for winning.

This week, I would like you to reflect on swimming sport and our swimming programme this term...

I would like you to blog about your experience of the day. What did you enjoy? How did you feel? Were you nervous? Was it better or worse than you expected? Remember that your blog will be read by people that were not at our sports day, so you need to make sure you explain fully what happens.
