I've been so excited to see all the visitors we're getting to our site!  Audrey and Savannah we got a visit (see our Guestbook comments) from the class with the blog you visited in Australia.  Maybe we can see if we can work on a writing project together with them.  We've also gotten visitors to our site from France, New Zealand, England, Canada and all over the U.S.  Our superintendent has checked out our site too.
Make sure you bring your parents in on Open House night (this coming Tuesday) and show them how to make a comment.  I'll take pictures of you and your parents commenting and post them on here.  

Last week the fourth graders worked (they think they were just playing!) on creating their own animals on a really cool site called switcheroo zoo.  They merged a variety of animals and created new animals with new names.  This week they will perfect their creations, take pictures of them, and write about them.  They will need to include information about the animal, including its habitat and diet, as well as other information they think we should know about their unique creation.  I'll publish some of the best on here and you can take a look. 

 Remind me to save them to my flash drive so they're easy to put on here!

We're going to visit some classes around the world.  Below are some links to school websites in England, New Zealand, and Australia.  We can leave them some comments and hopefully they'll visit us too!  When you comment, be sure to tell them:
1.   where we are
2.  how to find our blog (our web address is rolibrary.weebly.com)
3.  something you think is interesting on their site
4.  that we'd love to hear from them. 

Click on these links below to explore three types of blogs:

England (Nottinghamshire)
New Zealand (St. Clair)
Australia (Sydney)
Australia (see if you can figure out where)
Pondo (Mr. Rickett's class)

We are going to be talking about how to be safe, respectful, and responsible on the Internet.  Before we begin, what are your thoughts on the topic?  What things do you think are important to know regarding how to be safe on the Internet?  Are there "rules to live by" for Internet use?  What kinds of information do you share? 
I found the following information on a site called digital me:  It states that there are "3 core concepts" to think about with sharing information on the Internet.  We need to think about Who sees what we share, whether What we share is too personal or not ours to share, and Where should we share our information.
