Em's Edublog Nominations

Best Librarian's Blog: Bulldog Readers Blog

I love Pete the Cat, and so does Mrs. Hembree. She shares about Pete the Cat a lot on her blog. She always has great books, that's why I love her blog.

Best Ed Tech / Resource Sharing Blog:

Teacher Reboot Camp

I love Ms. Terrell's blog because she always gives my mom good ideas for apps I'd like. They always end up being my favorites.

Lifetime Achievement: Miss W

Miss W gives really good comments on my blog. My mom says she does that to lots of good blogs all over the world. She does so much. She should get this award.

Best New Blog: Blogging Bobcats

I went to their blog because it was talking about the earth, and I like to help the earth. I love how Mrs. Fraher writes back to me in the comments.

Best Class Blog: Fraher's Class and Friends

I love Mrs. Fraher's blog. She writes about things that I am interested in. For example, in her last post she wrote about scorpions. Sometimes my brother and I go out at night with a black light to find scorpions. Here's one hiding in the rocks:

Best Student Blog: Thinking About

I go to this blog a lot. I love it because Ethan writes about the things I like too. I like taking polls and he has a lot of polls on his blog.

Best Administrator's Blog: This and That

My mom likes this blog, and I see her read it. I like it because I like Mr. Castelhano, and I like the pictures, especially the one of the apple.

Best Mobile App: PBS Kids

This is my favorite app because it has lots of different videos, songs, and fun things for me to do. I learn too!

Best Educational Use of a Social Network:

Student Blogging Challenge

I love the Student Blogging Challenge. Even though I don't write that many posts during the challenge, it's because I am still learning to read and write. I love the challenge because it gives me ideas, and it lets me make new blogging friends.

Miss W & me. Miss W writes the Student Challenges.

Now you know my favorites. Who are your favorites?

I made this on Pages with my mommy's help.

What else comes in eights?

Do you have eight fun facts to share about tarantulas or anything else?

Constitution Buddy

We had Constitution Day a few weeks ago.

The Constitution is important because it keeps you safe. It has rules to keep us safe.

My Constitution Buddy that I made.

I heard my mom and my brother talking about the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, and they were on this site.

What did you do for Constitution Day?

What have you learned about our Constitution?

This post was written for the Student Blogging Challenge #3.

Ants Lift and March

I am learning about ants at school. I learned that they walk and walk, dig and dig, and lift and lift. They work together as a team. They also can bite people, so look out for ants!

My mom found this fun and interactive site about ants.

Here's a video from National Geographic about ants. I liked this one.

What can ants do?

Where do they live?

What do you know about ants?

I wrote this post for the Student Blogging Challenge #4.

The Tooth Fairy Visited Me!

I lost my very first tooth and the Tooth Fairy visited me for the first time!

I created this on my mom's iPhone using PicFrame, with a little help.

I wrote the Tooth Fairy a note to see if I could keep my first tooth and still get my money. When I woke up in the morning, I found one dollar and she left my tooth! I also got a little small note from the Tooth Fairy.
