What I thought about other Middle Schooler’s blog’s0
Sir Francis Bacon once said “knowledge is power”. I recently viewed eight blogs that were created by Middle Schoolers like me. Out of these blogs I gained knowledge, got ideas to put on my personal blog and I got to see what other kids the same age as me are doing in their schools.
For starters, I attained knowledge from a few of these blogs. For example, on the Room 613 Student blogs I learned about the Three Gorges Dam. I found out that it is located in China and people do not want it to be built, but they dont want to stop creating it because its already half-made and they would waste alot of money. Also, that it is designed to generate 18.2 million kilowats of electricity.
Also, I got ideas to put on my own blog. An example is the Groochland Middle School Student Blog. I saw that they reach out to the school nurse and make her feel good. This is a very good idea to put on our blogs to express feelings. Also, on nightweisal.blogspot.com it asks the student to make up a quote. This is also a very creative way of getting kids to think critically.
Furthermore, by viewing these blogs I get an idea of what other kids are learning or doing in their schools. On the http://library.bigbadwolf.org I can see that they are reading Flowers for Algermon by Daniel Keyes, Small Steps by Louis Sachar, TTFN by Lauren Myracle and it tells about each one. I think that this is interesting because kids in our school read these same books.
I really enjoyed viewing these blogs because I gained knowledge, got ideas to put on my personal blog and saw what kids my age are doing in their schools. In my opinion I think they did a fantastic job.
