Miss W or tasteach
Whenever you see either of these avatars or images on the world wide web, you will know it is me. I am a retired teacher who began blogging with students in 2008. I still blog with teachers and students in Tasmania, Australia. I also blog about my family history and whenever I travel, Davo the Tasmanian devil keeps a blog about his adventures with me. But the event I enjoy most is running the Student Blogging Challenge twice a year, with the help of the staff at Edublogs.
Teachers – Remember you can adapt the activities to suit what is happening in your class at that time or you can cut and paste parts of it on to your class blog. Just remember to give credit where you found the ideas by linking back to the challenge post somewhere on your post.
Students – Most weeks there will be lots of activities to choose from. You don’t have to complete them all. But by Easter or mid April, your mentor or I must see your ‘About Me’ page or post as well as two other posts relating to the challenge. If they can not be found, your name will be taken off the list of students participating, especially if you have been given a mentor.
Mentors – They are there to give you some clues about blogging, reminding you of the challenge as well as carrying on conversations in your posts. Remember to read and reply to their comments politely and in a timely fashion.
This challenge we have many new students and classes taking part so let’s get some admin out of the way before we start our activities for this week. Anything written in bold and blue is a link you can click on to take you to another blog or website.
Admin for week 1
- Check that your name appears only once on the list of participating students. Leave a comment on that page if I need to remove your name from the list – give me your name, URL and age so I can find you easily.
- If all the students in your class have blogs and your teacher has a section called ‘My class’, you should have a widget called ‘Class blogs’. Make sure this is on your sidebar.
- Add the challenge badge to your sidebar – there will be a new post this week explaining how to do this.
- Can visitors leave comments on your blog posts? If your country is in bright pink, then you might need to change your privacy settings. Check this post for how to do this using Edublogs, Blogger and Kidblog.
- Once you have done your activity for this week, remember to come back here and leave a comment on this post. Include a link to your blog post so I can try and visit in the next week. Great posts will be added to our Flipboard magazine on the sidebar.
With so many new students and teachers taking part, you might like to start with this video created by the team at Edublogs. Here is a PDF activity about blogging terms that you might want to use after watching the video.
Time now for the two activities for this week
Activity 1: Create an avatar to use on your blog. There are many different avatar creation sites on the web. I have been to many of them and created lots of different avatars. Some you just save and download to your computer to then upload into your blog. Others you need to use the snipping tool to save a square image of your avatar. It is always best to save as a jpg format.
Here is a symbaloo of websites to use for avatar making. Feel free to add this to your blog. Along the bottom are pages where teachers have listed lots of sites as well as shown examples. The easiest to do are on the right hand side and look like my avatar.
To add your avatar to your blog, if using Edublogs, check here. If using blogspot, check here. Teacher might need to change some settings in Kidblog to allow students to add own avatars.
- Like Lego figures – click here and here is a post from Brianna about her avatar
- Like comics – bitstrip avatars from Birney Bulldogs
- Will used toondoo to create a family avatar
- Mrs Vazquez’s class used google slides to show off their avatars
Did you find a great avatar site not mentioned here? Write a post about your avatar and how it represents you. Include a link to the website where you created the avatar.
UPDATE UPDATE – If writing a post about your avatar, choose an interesting title not just avatar as this will cause an error on your blog.
Activity 2: Write or update your About Me page.
Whenever I visit a blog for the first time, I always check to see who the person is that is writing the blog posts. Do they have similar interests to me?
If you already have an About Me page, you might want to create an About my State or Province page as well. Be creative:
- Write a poem
- Write an A-Z paragraph eg I am an athletic, yet brainy child who decided that saving the environment is one of my future goals. Check out how one of the mentorscreated her about me page especially for the student blogging challenge
- Create a tellegami like our mentor Dinah has done
- Create a list of things people might not know about you like Ms Herring has done
- Write a Who am I like Mrs Keane or Mrs Lyttle
- Students in Ireland paired up to create their about us page, Ms Seitz’ class did the same,Mrs Moore’s class are new bloggers
- Penelope, Warrior Kat, Harry, Daniela,
- Brianna (a student mentor) has a great favourites about me page, as well as an A-Z post
- Anna, a new student mentor this year, has a continually updated About Me page
What is the difference between a page and a post? Check out the information here.
If using Edublogs, below are instructions for creating your page. If using blogspot, check here. If using weebly, check here. If using Kidblog, you will need to write a post.
- Login to your blog, go to Settings> Discussion and make sure the default setting is ticked for allow people to leave comments> save the changes at the bottom
- Now go to the dashboard>pages>add new
- Change the title to About Me or something similar.
- If you only have one row of icons above the box, click on the last icon called the kitchen sink or toggle. This opens a second row which allows you to change font colours.
- In the box, write a bit about yourself remembering to be internet safe. Make sure you have checked out the pages from other students mentioned – many of them have been blogging for a while.
- In the area under the page writing box, you should see a Discussion box – open this and make sure you have ticked Allow comments.
- When you have finished click the big button on the right side of your screen – probably says update or send for review.
- Once you have saved your about me page, go back and delete the sample page.
- If your theme doesn’t show pages in the header area, then you will need to go to dashboard> appearance> widgets and drag across the Pages one to your sidebar.
Finished the work for week 1?
Then head off to the class or student list above the blog header and start visiting other blogs. You might not want to comment this week but maybe check them out. Are there any students with interests the same as you? Do you have a mentor yet? Have they left you any comments?
Hello Ms.W,
I finished creating my avatar but I didn’t read carefully on what I had to do next so I came back and did the missing part that I forgot to do.

Sorry!
Hi Miss W,
MCL (my grade 3-4 class) are very excited about the Blogging Challenge. We used one of the examples given and the students paired up to create an ‘About Us’ page. Here is the link to our page:
http://mcl2017.global2.vic.edu.au/about-us/
We also had lots of fun creating our avatars using Otaku Avatar Maker. These will be placed on our blog soon.
We can’t wait to begin the next few tasks!
From Mrs Lehane’s Class
G’day Mrs Lehane,
If you want people to leave comments on your PAGE you will need to do the following:
Go to your about me page and open it in your dashboard.
In top right corner, click on screen options and make sure Discussions is ticked. Close screen options.
Now below the writing area for your page you should see a dropdown labelled Discussions.
Make sure you have ticked the boxes about leaving comments.
Hi Miss W,
Thanks for your reply. I have changed the settings as instructed and we have received our first comment which we are very excited about.

Dear Mrs W,
Thanks for a great Week 1 challenge. It had been a while since I updated my avatar. Your instructions were very helpful and luckily, I was able to create an avatar that has a bit more grey hair than the first image I made years ago.
Week 1 was also a great opportunity to update my ‘About Me’ page. My students are looking forward to finishing off both tasks this week.
I hope you’ve had a great start to the Challenge too.
Kind Regards,

My class and I would like to thank you for running the Student Blogging Challenge again this year. We are looking forward to sharing our learning with others, and to building global friendships. This has been an inspiration for me and for so many of my students over the years that we have been participating now. We are one world and when we connect through blogging, this helps reminds us of this. We hope you will visit our class blog and leave us a comment.

Philip,
Remember you might need to update your about me post each time you take part in a new set of challenges. Your interests might have changed, your style of writing may have changed and so on.
Hello Miss W!
We had a blast creating avatars and individual about me for our blog! Here is the post – http://blogs.goaj.org/amoore/2017/03/10/meet-our-wild-selves/ and we also added the Google Slideshow to our class ‘About Us’ page!
We are going on spring break, but look forward to future activities!

G’day Miss W,
I have created my avatar and about me blog page. The blog page for about me was really tricky because I didn’t know what to write about myself.
From James
Hi James,
I would love to visit your blog but you didn’t leave the URL of your blog post for me to click on.
Dear Miss w
I have completed the page for the first challenge here’s my blog. http://jria.global2.vic.edu.au/student-blogging-challenge/
Hi, I am Jayson from California here is my link to my about me page. http://afascinatingblogbyjayson.edublogs.org/about-me/
Dear, Miss W
I updated my about me page even though it said posted on October. So check it out at this link. ( http://teosblog.edublogs.org/2016/10/10/about-me/ )
Welcome back Teo,
I notice you also have a page called “All about me”. You might want to edit it and just add a bit to the top each year stating March 2017 then adding a sentence or two showing how you have changed.
Greetings,
These students have completed Week 1 activities (“About Me” and/or introductory post) and will be commenting on international blogs as they arrive back at school this week!

Hello Miss. W,
I did this challenge last year, and I still have the 2016 badge. I tried to add the 2017 badge, but I have forgotten how to get the link to add to my widgets. The link for the explanation that you posted is not working. I was wondering if you could send that link again.
Thank you,
Olivia

Hi Olivia,
I am sorry the link isn’t active at the moment. I will add a separate post explaining how to add the badge.
The here is link for step 3 is not working. Can you please help. In addition, I have not used blogs before and I’m having trouble setting the class blogs up as well. Will you please direct me to directions for that as well.
Thank you.
Hi Mrs Payne,
I am sorry the link for adding the badge isn’t active at the moment but will be by the end of the week. As you are using weebly, you might need to check out these links to create a class:
https://education.weebly.com/
http://www.wikihow.com/Create-a-Classroom-Website-with-Weebly
The hyperlink to get the badge information to put on a class blog page isn’t working?
