Blogging Friendships

Making friends is just one of the many wonderful aspects of having a classroom blog!

2KM, our blogging friends from Australia,  sent us a surprise package on March 12.

On March 31, we received another generous gift from Bianca and her mother, AA.

We wanted to send our valued friends some things from America, specifically from our state of California. 

Miss McGeady and 2Km just got the air mail package and check out this thank you video they made for us!

Educational blogging has truly made learning more fun and so meaningful!

Lovely Friends!

Mrs. Yollis and her students could not have been any happier today!

Bianca, from 2KM, and her wonderful mother, put together another Australian care package for the class.

Such thoughtfulness!

Not only is educational blogging good for the mind, 

it's good for the heart, too!

Today during Fun Thursday, students built a home for the koalas!

Fun!      Fun!      Fun!

The Hello Song!

Today we had music with the the wonderful Mr. B and Mrs. Ranney's class.

We recorded a special song for our new 2KM blogging friends in Australia.

Our Global Friends!

Yesterday Mrs. Yollis' Class made new friends with some young classroom bloggers in the southern hemisphere!

We met the interesting students from Australia when Mrs. Yollis discovered their blog. Click here to view the fabulous 2KM blog and be sure to leave a comment. They have a fun sing-a-long song called the Skip Count Song! Give it a listen!

2KM informed us about another classroom blog in Texas called C-O Connections Blog. We are going to investigate and comment on their blog as well!

It has been fun reading about what other students from different places are learning.


We had a wonderful time exploring all the visitor dots that were visible on 2KM's ClustrMap!

We look forward to our global friendship!
