G’day Mrs Thompson,
Thank you so much for allowing your students to take part in the student blogging challenge.
I hope both you and your students get something out of the challenge – they can do the blogging or commenting challenge or both if they wish. The challenges I set can be done in any order or miss one if on holidays etc.
There are no true ‘winners’ as everyone who takes part gets something out of it, but I will probably ask each teacher to nominate a couple of students who they feel have made the most improvement or the best global connections during the challenge.
I really enjoyed watching this short video. Very creative. It is the first time I have come across a video done this way. Thanks for modelling it, I must have a look at the website. I wish you all well with the blogging challenge. We are doing the commenting side of it. I hope some of my students will visit your personal blogs and leave you some comments that are worthwile!
Nice xtranormal video post thing. It looked really cool and I want to try.
I was also really tired coming back from camp. Even with the noise on the bus ride home I fell asleep twice.
I think Wednesday would have been the best day of activities for my activity group because we had the vertical challenge and giant swing. If only the weather was better. I froze to death during the giant swing time because of the rain and wind.
We are a Grade 5 class from Hong Kong and we’re called the 5E Eagles. We’ve just created a links section on our Grade 5 class blog called “Our Global Community”
We’re writing you today because we like your blog(s) and so we’ve added you to our Global Community list. We’ve either found you through Twitter, The EduBlog Challenge or because you’re already a contact of Ms. Cahusac.
Come and check us out or look at some of the other classes which are listed.

Hi Mrs Thompson’s class
I am very impressed by your Xtranormal video. It’s also one of my favourite web tools.
Good luck with the blogging challenge!
All the best
