Blogging Guidelines

Blog Guidelines

Our class blog is a way for us to share our ideas and learning with other people. Sharing our learning means that it is very important that we understand how to use the blog and the internet in a smart way. Therefore we have developed some Cyber Smart Guidelines to help.

Sometimes we will make mistakes but please remember that this is a learning space, and if we don’t make some mistakes we might not learn.

It is important to not share our personal information. So,

Student work will only be identified by first names or web smart nicknames.

All comments should have first names or web smart nicknames only.
 

Parents who leave comments are asked not to use last names either. (Please post comments as “Joshua’s mom” or “Ashleigh’s grandfather”, etc.) 

Proof-read your comments carefully. Students should have a class mate or family member check for spelling mistakes before submitting a comment.


Always write in full sentences – no “text talk” please!

Remember your automatics. You should have a capital letter for your name, beginning of a sentence and a full stop at the end of a sentence at the very least.

Please share our blog with your family, friends and neighbours.

Commenting Guidelines

As a blogger, you will be commenting on other people’s work or responding to questions regularly. 

Good comments:

·      Are helpful

·      Are supportive

·      Are learning focused
