Dear Ms. W
I have completed the week five assignment, I enjoyed reading Kyla and Mia’s well thought out blogs
Dear Mrs. W,
I have completed week 6 activities. These activities helped me learn and see how much technology I use in my everyday life. This was possible because of Mia’s blog “http://raindropdream.weebly.com/home/week-5-lets-talk-school”
Dear Ms. W,
I completed week 6 and I really enjoyed looking at other peoples wonderful blogs. I left a comment on Mai and Jueun posts. I thought that their blogs were interesting and I got to relate with them.

Dear Mrs.W,
I found this post fun to complete and I really enjoyed some of the blogs I visited. I chose to look at Mai Thao’s blog. It was well written and also insightful into the use of technology in our daily lives.

Hello Ms. W,
This week by being one of the students on the list, I noticed quite a lot. Many people like to comment about their own stories and then ask questions to learn more, which is really nice. Their questions typically regarded my travels, so they were fun to answer and talk about, but mostly, I loved to hear people’s stories. It’s so great to hear from people with similar experiences! Thanks for choosing me to be on the list!
Regards,
Caleb
Caleb,
I thought your post would bring back memories for students who could really associate something in their lives that related to your post. It was a pleasure having you as one of the selected bloggers.
Hello Ms. W,
I have taken the time to answer to most of my comments, I couldn’t answer all of them because 236 comments is a lot.
Thank you,
Agathe
Hi Ms. W,
This week’s blog posts were truly insightful, especially the Gaia Theory blog. The post, the aesthetics, and the experience itself were remarkably inspiring to make my blog better.
Cheers,
J.
Dear Ms. W,
Did you know that the first Ice Age was caused by moths.

Dear Ms. W,
I have finished my week 6 assignment. I really enjoyed meeting new people and being able to communicate with them. I think the Grade 7’s 100-word challenge was great and allowed a lot of creativity to happen.

Dear Ms. W,
Activity 1 from this week made me explore other student’s blogs outside my school. They had so much effort writing blogs and stories. I also learned many new things reading their blogs. Learning how to comment too!

Dear Ms. W,
I have completed the activity for SCBC week #5.
As I was reading several posts, I noticed that many think creativity and are open minded. I wish this could be everyone’s behavior…

Dear Miss W.,
I have written a post about unplugging from our devices. This was an activity from Kathleen’s post. Here’s the link: http://emmac23.edublogs.org/2017/11/17/student-blogging-challenge-week-6-visiting-others/
I can’t comment on her website because when I try to comment, it says that I need to login to post my comment.
