Learning About Commenting
Commenting on the blog is what helps to keep the blog alive. We’ve been learning what makes a great comment and have been using Mrs. Yollis’ classmates to help us learn various ways to make a comment great.
Writing comments is about making connections, using ‘juicy’ language, engaging with others, asking good questions, writing strong sentences, and so much more.
Have a look at their helpful video below:
In a nutshell, here are the top 5 tips we should remember when leaving a comment:
Step 1: Compliment the blogger in a specific way.
Step 2: Add new factual information.
Step 3: Make a connection.
Step 4: Ask a relevant question to get a conversation going.
Step 5: Always proofread your comment before publishing.
Today, we collaborated as a class to read a recent post from Mrs. Yollis’ class and write a comment together. We hope they write us back and answer some of our questions!
