G'day Mrs Yollis and students,
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to introduce yourselves to the other blogging challenge classes!
But with TWELVE boys and SIXTEEN girls doesn't that make TWENTY-EIGHT students in the class?
@tasteach,
DeleteThank you for the comment. Do you like the photo of the bean bags? Our mascot name's are Panda, Beverly, Carl, Koala, and a no named skeleton.
Do you have mascot? If you do how many?

Dear Mrs. Yollis and Class,
ReplyDeleteThis morning I was teaching a group of 11 teachers and 1 principal about blogging. One of the five questions that came up was, "How do you get comments from more than just the students in your class? How do they know what to comment on?"
So naturally, I Googled the one and only Mrs. Yollis' class blog and we looked at this one post. Three noticed that the post was written for an authentic purpose of introducing your class to others in the Student Blogging Challenge. Five educators talked about the creativity of bringing in math from the real world to describe yourselves. Four of them pointed out that the guiding question at the end applies to all audiences of all ages.
Thank you Mrs. Yollis and class for providing another amazing example of blogging in the classroom!
Kind regards,
Mrs. Watanabe
@ the ONE and only fabulous Mrs. Watanabe,
DeleteI am thrilled to hear that you brought a DOZEN adults to see our classroom blog. Teaching children how to communicate and contribute online is so important these days.
I love how you incorporated numbers into your blogging comment for your teachers. My TWENTY-SEVEN students will enjoy reading your clever comment on Monday.
Looking forward to MANY wonderful connections this year with you!
Your friend,
Mrs. Y♥llis

Dear Mrs. Yollis & Class,
ReplyDeleteWe really liked how you wrote a post about your class using numbers. We are going to do the same! We are a class from London, Ontario, Canada. We are in a school with only 1 straight Gr.6 classroom, we have 2 desktop computers and 2 laptops, we have 3 teachers (music, french, homeroom), we have 17 classrooms, we have 25 kids in our class, we have about 400 books in our classroom library, we have 493 students at our school and we are 100% feeling awesome today!
Thank you for this great idea! We were wondering what your class' favorite subject is, not including gym.
We hope to hear from you soon,
Miss B. & the Gr.6s
@ Ms. B and class,
DeleteThis is Heather and Sheila from Mrs. Yollis' class. We want to share our Sheila and Heather by the Numbers. We are in ONE classroom, we are TWO good friends, TWO class blogs, we have FIVE MacBook computers, we are a table of SIX, we have read SIX books in all, and we have TWENTY-SEVEN classmates in all.
Heather and Sheila's favorite subject in school is music. We don't even have gym. We are in third grade. What is your favorite school subject?
Sincerely,
Heather and Sheila
Dear Mrs. Yollis' Class,
ReplyDeleteWe enjoyed reading about your class. We are third graders too. Our school is in Michigan. We think you are awesome bloggers! We just started our own class blog. We like how your cluster map is so full! Ours doesn't have a lot of dots on it yet, but we hope it will fill up as we become better bloggers. Here are some numbers that represent our class: We have 21 kids in our classroom. Our room number is 24. We are all 8 or 9 years old.
Please check out our blog!
