Time to nominate

Well the official part of the challenge is finished until September 2010 when we will start all over again. But there is one more thing we would like you to do.

Over the past ten weeks, you have been visiting lots of different blogs from students and classes around the world. Some of them you have found more interesting than others. What was it that made you re-visit a blog more than once? What makes one blog stand out above all the other blogs you visited?

Nominating a blog for the Edublogs awards later this year

There are some rules you must follow to make it easy for the Edublogs team to find and visit your nominated blog(s).

  1. You may nominate, if you wish,  a student blog from your school, a student blog from anywhere else in the world and a class blog.
  2. You must write a post explaining why this blog is deserving of the student or class blog award. Give lots of reasons why this blog is fantastic and why you want to nominate it. If nominating more than one blog, you must write a post for each nomination.
  3. Each post must have 2 links: first to the blog you are nominating and second back to this post explaining how to nominate. (That means I will get a pingback and Edublogs team will be able to check easily from my one post.)
  4. You must then come back to this challenge post and leave a comment saying which blogs you have nominated and leaving their URL, in case the pingback doesn’t work.

Remember, nominate the very best blogs you have found during the challenge. The student blog or class blog does not have to be officially taking part in the challenge. You might have found one while clicking on blogrolls in some of the activities we have done. The blog must have recent posts when judging occurs later this year.

By the end of June there will be badges you may copy to your sidebar, saying you took part in the March 2010 student blogging challenge, so keep checking here over the next few weeks.

Good luck with your blogging and hope to see you all again in September.

    After much inner debate and aggravation, I have come up with the following three blogs for my nominations:

    Class blog – Mr. Miller’s Class

    I think that there should also be a “Best Principal Blog” category for the nominations because you have librarian and teacher blogs, but not the principal. Thanks!
    Happy Blogging!

      Oh , I also chose Daredevil19 for the same reason, it was enjoyable and something that catches your eye.

      Link: http://5dstudent19.edublogs.org/

      Class Blog; I chose Miss Nichols Class because I nominate for the class blog Miss Nichols’. The reason I chose this is not just because I am part of it because it is beyond cool!!! It’s filled with cool videos you can enjoy, our team pet which is the tiger, and posts that definitely are worthy of being noticed to the world. I think that Miss Nichols has an awesome blog. I also love that every student blog challenge is what she has done unlike others in which sometimes do two of the challenges, but no she has all of them!!! So, this is why I love this class blog. Also the major thing why I picked this blog is because it is creative, it doesn’t overdue it (adding to much widgets, or too many pictures), and it really catches a visitors eye! Okay, Go Check It Out!!!! Please.
