Hi, my name is Maddy Holden. I am eight years old but I will be nine in July. I am in Grade 3 at John Wanless Public School in Toronto but will be moving to Lake Massawippi this summer and will be joining Grade 4 at North Hatley School.
Here’s a bit about me: my favourite colour is pink and my favourite animals are puppies and tigers. I like drawing, painting, swimming and riding my bike. My favourite subjects at school are Gym, Music and Art. I also like playing video games and my Nintendo DS.
I am looking forward to meeting you all in August and making friends.
Bye for now,
Maddy
What is a blog????
A blog is a website where you share your sweat and tears otherwise known as writing pieces. A blog is a journal of what we have done over the school year and we get to share it worldwide. A blog is also like your own diary; you share your opinions, views and ideas.
How has the blog helped you learn?????
I enjoyed making the avatar. It was fun designing your own monster or person and I felt it helped let us express ourselves. Some of the links like bookfilx helped us with our reading. Bookflix had online books with words at the bottom that someone else reads while we are watching the story unravel. Another thing I enjoyed was making the Voki! You get to create your own character and record your own voice. This helped me articulate.
How has the blog helped your writing?????
It helps my writing because I get to comment with people around the world and they get to comment back. If you want you can reply back to that person. On top of that we did lots of writing pieces like the super hero piece and the Toondoo comic strip and Piclit image! Now that was fun!
