Top 10 Blog Assignment

Good Morning,

This is our next to last day to spend blogging in our classroom.  I have loved watching you become better bloggers!!


This morning, we are writing a top ten list about what you have loved or enjoyed about 4th grade.  Top ten lists are a great way to organize your thinking.  They help us communicate why things are important, and they are fun to create.  Lists grab people's attention.  Our readers love to read lists.  They are flexible and  are a wonderful way to share your opinions.  


1.) Decide on your top 10 things you have loved or enjoyed about 4th grade.  (on a piece of notebook paper)


2.) Put them in order of 1 being your most favorite thing and ten being the end of your list.


3.) Blog your list and describe why you added each thing to your list.


4.) Comment on at least 10 other blogs!


Happy Blogging!
