A few days ago Mrs Baldwin received an exciting email. It was written by a teacher called Mr Rothwell who teaches at Belrose Public school which is located on the Northern Beaches of Sydney. Mr Rothwell had found our class blog on the Internet and wanted to begin working together as “blogging buddies” this year. We are very very excited about this as its the first class we have connected with and also the first blog we have began commenting on apart from our own.
Both classes have decided to take the time to explore each others class blogs and learn about what each other is doing at school and what we have in common. At this stage we know that Mr Rothwell’s class are also in year 4 and this is also their first year of blogging. We have even read the same Judy Blume Book ‘Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing’ at school this year!
We have been very lucky to already receive some excellent comments from Mr Rothwell’s students and some students from our class have also taken the time to reply and write comments as well.
This has so far been very successful and a lot of fun and something we will continue for the remainder of the year. Room 9 students can choose to comment on Mr Rothwell’s Blog for homework or during the Daily 5.
We look forward to learning more about the Year 4 class at Belrose Public school and hope they are enjoying reading about our learning and the fun we are having this year!

My favourite post from our class blog is my post about the sushi making. I found out how blogs work when we first started blogging.The benefits of knowing another blog is that you can find out what other classes in the world are doing.

I am from Mr Rothwell’s class and I think the benifits of having another class on a blog is that: you get to go on a computer, you see what other classes are up to and they get to see what you are up to.
