"Schools Out For Summer" A. Cooper
School may be out but blogging and web surfing and googling and wikipedia never end. Wherever you go and whatever you maybe doing this summer you are all just an internet connection away from letting each other know what your doing, sharing the things you are learning about, asking each other questions and just plain saying HI.
This is the year you stepped up form being users of computers to become creators. From now on you will be able to look for things, figure our where in the world some of the answers are to your questions, create your own information and share it with each other and the rest of the world.
Seize the day folks, life goes by pretty quick and before you know it you will be teaching kids all about creating and publishing and finding the answer to their 101 questions. You are already on your way to being ready when that day comes.
It has been a privilege and a pleasure to have been able to spend some Friday mornings with you. I am proud to have watched you at work in the classroom. I look forward to watching your creations over the years.
This is not an ending though, its just another beginning. Start using this space and when you are ready you can create your own personal blogs and spread your wings there. I will be keeping my eyes open here for any questions you might have and to see what cool things you come up with.
This blog is now open 24/7...use it and enjoy it.

Yes, I see that your getting the hang of blogging, and that is a very cool thing. Keep posting things up here, but don't forget to add your name to the bottom of the blog entry so we all know who is writing.
Keep writing to each other, use this space to keep in touch and to show everyone what your up to.
Ill be around to help with any questions, hopefully in a short time you guys will be teaching me some new things.
