The time has come for us to share with a global audience of elementary kids… or at least three other classes of them!

We are now part of Quad 91, made up of four classes:
Us. – Alpha Blog
The Falcons School for Girls in Ealing, West London, UK – http://kidblog.org/falconsgirls
Byron Primary in Croydon, London, UK – http://byronbloggers.primaryblogger.co.uk
Cornelia Elementary in the United States – http://mreclassblog.blogspot.com

But what is Quad 91? And what is Quadblogging anyway??

Hear from our coordinator, Nick Hitchen, at the Falcons School for Girls!

This is going to be a very exciting, on-going collaboration with these other three classes. So, let’s start brainstorming!!

If you could ask the other classes anything, what would it be?
If you could tell the other classes about anything, what would it be?

Hey guys, I just stopped doing the POST series but i just added a new series called Super duels.

So who will win in an epic battle Iron man or Captain america?

Put your comments and tell why which one would win.

Mrs. Blair,

I think I have thought of a motto. Here it is: Alpha, Brainteasers, Creativity, And More!

Google Docs are a great tool for education, especially for writing. By setting up our novels in Google Docs, we are able to access our stories and work on them from any computer with internet, anywhere we go, without a flash drive!!

To get to our McKeel Google Docs site, go to docs.mckeelschools.com and log-in with your username and password.

(PS – Look at the other kinds of Google Docs you can make, too, like spreadsheets and presentations!)

Today was an amazing day!

Here’s a list of highlights:

Sensational Strategy Sticks
Writer’s Blocks
Sizzling Word Trade

Thank you to John Pierce, Cindy Spivey and Kimberly Riffel for helping with set-up this morning.
Thank you to Cindy Solomon and all the Alpha kids for helping with clean-up.

And now… what did you think about the Write-a-thon?? How much did you get done? What was the highlight of your day? What did you learn? What surprised you? Tell all and then start writing your novel again!!

Dear alpha people,

I reached my first milestone at 4:53 on the third. My milestone was 1,800 and that is a very hard goal to reach for a slow typer. Let us all have good stories and keep on writing!!
