Beyond School

Forty-five or so grade 9 students in my English/humanities classes at Korea International school are now ripe to start connecting with other student bloggers around the world. If you’re interested, it’s as easy as hitting “comment” and leaving your contact info. We can do a low-maintenance “read X number of bloggers from our partner school and reply (in whatever way)” assignment for starters.

The KIS bloggers have been blogging for about two months, and are now finding their voices and interesting ideas to write about. They’ll be experimenting with various sentence styles and patterns in the coming weeks and months. I’d love to hook up with other teachers in similar stages of writer-development.

Again, if you’re interested, drop a line. There are some wonderful students here waiting to connect. (See their blogs linked to our class blog at http://english9.learnerblogs.org )
