Here is a list of those classes registered for the student blogging challenge in Sept 2012. Please make sure you visit the blog on either side of your blog – leave comments on their class blog and help add to their conversations.
Also visit as many other blogs as you would like and create some great global connections.



Hi
Sorry about my grade level error above. My class is a Year 7&8 class in New Zealand (11 and 12 years old).
Thanks
Valerie McLeod
The class we are suppose to blog with is ourselves, I was wondering if that can be changed?
Thanks
Dana
G’day Mrs Wunder,
If you check the class participants list in the header, you will find you have two classes from the USA on either side of you. One is grade 11/12 and the other is grade 4.
Thanks….I get it now:)
Hi, wouldn’t it make sense to blog with classes of the same age group?
G’day Ms King,
Just to make sure all classes get some comments, it is suggested that you leave a few comments on the blogs either side of you and then go visit lots of other blogs that are more the same age. Otherwise some classes might receive no comments at all.
Dear Miss W, could you tell me, please, if I could edit the URL for my blog on the list of class blogs? Thank you!
G’day Olga,
If you send me an email with the correct URL I will change it on my spreadsheet.
Miss W.,
Ms. Kerr found our blog on the list on Sunday, but we don’t see it there today. Some participates have already added some comments to our blog. We’d like to make comments also, but we don’t know who our “neighbours” are.
Thanks for your help.

Miss. W.,
Found it! Thank you!
We are really looking forward to this challenge.
Ms. Kerr
Miss W,
Sorry for disturbing you,we can’t find the blog of our class. It’s included in the list but URL is not activated.
Miss W,
I cause troubles,but as you see I have difficulties with starting blogging. My blog is
http://dozhdikova.edublogs.org/
What should I do next?
Sincerly,
A.I.D
G’day Alla,
I have added the URL now to the class list in the challenge page. Is this going to be a blog for all your classes?
Hello,
We are trying to complete our very first challenge as a class by visiting the blogs above and below us. We are very disappointed because some of the blogs don’t have “comment” spaces, others are listed as private and we can’t view them, and some seem to be individual students instead of classes.
Help! We are a third grade class in the USA. We’d love to connect with other classes all over the world. Check us out mrsmckelvey.edublogs.org.
Thanks,
Mrs. McKelvey’s Class
G’day Mrs McKelvey,
Thanks for joining the challenge. Feel free to look at all the blogs in the challenge. Those that are from the kidblog platform generally have the teacher as the first name on the list, then the students under that. Some of these blogs are set to private but I hope that will change in the next couple of weeks.
Agreed – looking for other blogs in the challenge but I am sandwiched between a blog that has not posted since August and another that has a private blog that readers must log in to visit… Hope I get some visitors to our class blog this week – my ear 5s are left to blog on their own while I am away with the year 6 students…. fingers crossed…
G’day Einsteins,
Feel free to comment on other class blogs. This is the first challenge where so many classes have still not changed the privacy settings. Next challenge I think I will also sort classes by elementary/primary, middle/Junior high, high school/college and university/adult learners.
This is so cool!!! Communicating with schools from around the world!
We have the first weeks challenge up! Our middle school students are looking forward to seeing visitors from around the world!

Hello,
I have the same question as one above, but I wasn’t able to resolve. We are new to blogging and are so looking forward to the challenge! I looked for Week 1 challenge under “Latest Challenge Posts” but only see Weeks 8,9 and 10.. .I assume from the last challenge? Can you direct me to first challenges for Sept. 2012?
Thanks! Mrs. Campagna
G’day Andrea,
The first challenge will be published on Sunday 9th September and then every Sunday from then on. I hope you and your students enjoy the challenges.
Thank you! They will be so excited!
Hi Miss W,
I was just wondering if there is a badge we can add to our blogs to show we are part of the 2012 challenge? (We’re just so proud, we want everybody to know!)
Thank you for all your hard work,
Kylie
Hi Kylie,
Yes there is on in the pipeline but not finished yet. I will write a post as soon as it is ready.
Just wondering how we get the weekly emails for the fall challenge. We don’t seem to be on the list?
Thanks,
Mrs. McKelvey’s Bloggin Frogs
G’day Mrs McKelvey,
On the right sidebar is an area called Subscribe for free. One way is to put your email address in there and you will automatically be sent an email whenever a new post is published.
