THING 4# Commeting

The reason why commenting helps to create a sense of community and interaction is because it helps us as writing the blogs to express how we feel or a problem we have. This also allows other followers to express how they feel about our blog and help with feedback. With the feedback and our blogs we write we feel like a close fitted community. The interaction will help us writers to continue to write more blogs. The feedback is an encouragement to the writer of the blog.

I found two things that will help with writing blogs and commenting. You have to be personal and tell a little about yourself. For example an experience you had that pertains to the blog. I also found you need to be kind and nice about your feedback. We don’t want to discourage someone from not writing anymore blogs.

The seven classmates blogs are Katie Kennedy, Bretlea Appleton, Kelly Hill , Cynthia Brown, Benjamin Howell, Miguel Martinez, and Amy Mills.

Katie Kennedy

She is a fellow classmate in my class. In her “Thing 2”, she posted creating a blog is something that I have never done before probably because it was so difficult. The reason why I choose this thing is because encouraging feedback will help her get through blogging. I went and commented some encouraging feedback. I think with positive feedback this will help her get through blogging. With choosing her blog I am hoping this will help her through the class.

Bretlea Appleton

She is another class.  In her “Thing 9”, she posted a pumpkin with spelling words. The reason why I choose this thing is because it was a great idea. I found this to be encouraging for children to learn their spelling words! I left a comment to let her know this was a great idea and I plan on using an idea like that in my classroom.

Kelly Hill

She is a fellow classmate in my class. In her “Thing 7”, she posted a picture of a roll tide sign. The reason why I choose this thing is because this picture expresses her personality. I could see which football team she pulls. This just helps express who she is as a person.

Cynthia Brown

She is another class.  In her thing “Thing 1”, she posted about what the easiest thing is and what is not. The reason why I choose this thing is because I can relate to technology being very easy and helpful in the classroom sitting. This will help children learn different things.

Benjamin Howell

He is a fellow classmate in my class. In his thing “Thing 9”, he posted a comic of a scientist. The reason why I choose this thing is because I think it is encouraging to students that they never ask stupid questions. What a better way to put it in a comic strip. I loved his picture.

Miguel Martinez

 He is a fellow classmate in my class. In his thing “Thing 6”, he posted he could not full experience getfirefox. The reason why I choose this thing is because to help encourage him to not get discouraged. With other people who have used firefox can help him with his experience for firefox.

Amy Mills

She is a fellow classmate in my class. In her thing “Thing 3”, she posted how this would help in teaching. The reason why I choose this thing is because I agree with her on how it’s the future. Most parents and students already use different things on the internet to connect with one another.
