This week launches our introduction to blogging. We will learn about the genre and start writing our introductions on kidblog.org/blogahead. Click that link to see my first entry. To see what my seventh grade class wrote last year, check out Upstanding Bloggers 2015 at https://kidblog.org/class/UpstandingBloggers-3.
