TJ5 Students´ first contact with their kidblog

On March 9th, 801 grade students had their first contact with their Kidblog in the system class .I showed the blog to them and asked them to go to the activity "Instructions to decorate your group page". I asked them to read the instructions and do the corresponding activities. Most of the students asked me "teacher what do I have to do?” I thought that it was a behaviour that showed they are not autonomous learners. In other words, they always want the teacher to tell them what to do. I tell them many times to do the activities following the instructions. I noticed that there were some groups who quickly finished the activity and others who had problems and did not understand what they have to do. So I asked the students who had already finished the activities to help their classmates.

I observed that students enjoyed the activity of choosing an image for their avatars. Also, I noticed that students had difficulties to write their comments although the expressions were given. It means that although students had a bank of expressions to use, some of them wrote the comments incorrectly.

Another thing that I realized after this first students´ contact with the blog was that I made some comments for them to correct the mistakes they made when writing comments, but they did not take them into account and they did not correct their comments.
