C4K Summary for September

C4K #1 Sarah

Sarah is a student at Pt. England School in Auckland, New Zealand. Her Blog was on self managing. She explained that self management was important for children as they become adults. She thought that if everyone could better manage themselves they would have a greater opportunity at learning in the classroom. Some of her examples of self management were completing work on time and striving to succeed. I told Sarah I really enjoyed reading her post about self-management. And she is right, good self-management is very important in the success of young children as they become young adults. Completing tasks and striving to succeed are some great examples of what self-management looks like. Keep up the terrific work Sarah!

C4K #2 William N.

William is a student in Ms. Horst's class. His post for the day was titled International Dot Day. His class read a book called "The Dot" about a girl named Vashiti. Vashiti thinks she can't draw but later learns that everyone can be awesome at art. William had a picture posted on his blog of his personal dot art inspired by the book. I told William I really enjoyed reading his post about the book called "The Dot." I had never heard of this book before reading his post, so I was able to learn something new! He did a great job on his dot art!

C4K #3 Hale H.

 Hale is a high school student in Iowa. His post talked about what he would like to change about his school. If Hale could change anything it would be homework. He thinks it would be better for students to get their work done at school so they could have more time at home for fun things.
I told Hale that I understood that he would not want to have homework when there are more fun things to do. However, there are many benefits of homework so hang in there, all of his hard work will pay off!
