Leaving a quality blog comment on another student’s blog helps us make connections to new learning by asking open ended questions that encourage a reply and motivate the blogger to ask their own question in return. This is how a comment thread starts and when that happens we make connections with a wider audience who we can learn with and from.

ReplyDeleteMy name is Renee and I’m from the Summer Learning Journey Team. Ka pai for leaving a positive and quality comment on Jessie’s blog. I appreciate how you have taken the time to explain the benefits of leaving comments on other people’s blogs in your post because that is really helpful and shows that you have really engaged with the activity.
In your comment I particularly like how you complimented Jessie on her work and asked her a question about which items from the scavenger hunt she thought would be used in the upcoming Nanogirl experiments. This is a great way to form a connection with another learner and potentially initiate a comment thread. Next time, you could think about including a link to your own blog in your comment so that others who read your comment can check out your excellent blog posts as well. Which Summer Learning Journey activities have you been enjoying the most so far this year?
Remember, when you check out some of the other bloggers’ Summer Learning Journey posts and leave a positive, thoughtful or helpful comment, like you have done for Jessie, you will receive extra points! If you do this, remember to submit a link to your published comment using this form. .
Ngā mihi nui and keep up the excellent mahi - I can’t wait to see your other posts over the summer!
