C4K 10: Maja wrote about a Skype interview conducted with 5th graders in Pennsylvania. Maja wrote about how they were both learning the 50 states and where they are located; she shared about a song they use to memorize it. Maja also talked about how she thought it was interesting that they don't grow corn in Pennsylvania. Maja learned that the students have to wear uniforms each day, they learn about God, and they start school at 8:30 and end at 2:30. Maja is very observant!
I shared that I thought Skype was important because I am required to use it even at the college level. I said that I was proud that Maja was so creative and observant. I also told Maja that I use Skype to communicate with my family in Alaska.
C4K 11 (SPECIAL ASSIGNMENT YASMIN): I was assigned to comment on Yasmin's first post on her blog. Yasmin shared that she was upset and didn't understand why no one was commenting on her blogs. She went on to say that she faithfully comments on others blogs, and would like to receive the same treatment. I commented that I am assigned to comment on blogs every week; I then shared that I don't get a response every time I comment on a blog. I suggested putting entertaining videos and pictures in her blog. Then I told her to keep her head up, and keep trying! I did gain an appreciation in this assignment for all of the great advice that other people have given Yasmin. I realize that some were required to write, but they still did an amazing job giving Yasmin the feedback she wanted.
