Well, the call went out to students to think of some new names for the blog, and half a dozen of you answered with some terrific ideas. Special Thanks to TIFFANY, DIANE, and KAMILLE for giving it some real thought and giving us lots of creative possibilities. I haven’t included all your suggestions, but I tried to keep the best ones.Look at all the possibilities and pick your three favorites. Comment on this post and make sure to include your votes. Voting ends Friday. Ok, now go and DISCUSS!
Mr. Harris, are we allowed to vote for the one we came up with? -Tiffany 722
ReplyDeleteI vote for:
ReplyDelete1) Mr. Harris: The Social Studies Space
2) Bernie: History Talk
3) Kamille: The History Café
Are we going to vote in class, too?
ReplyDeleteTiffany, Why not keep the voting to the blog. Those who use the blog should have more say than those who don't.
ReplyDeletei like a serving of social studies and the history cafe.
ReplyDeleteI like all of them. (:
ReplyDelete1) Diana: Place of History
2) Mr.Harris: The Social Studies Space
3) Tiffany: U.S. History Chat Spot
Oh yeah. I have the same question as Tiffany: Are we going to vote for the blog's name in class, too? That would be cool.
ReplyDeleteKamille, since Tiffany and you helped so much by thinking of new names we can vote on them in class. Originally I thought students should do all their voting on the blog - as a way to direct students to the site and participate.
ReplyDeleteWhich would you girls prefer, voting online or voting in class?
I think we should stick to voting in the blog. Like Mr. Harris said, "Those who use the blog should have more say than those who don't." Those who don't participate in the blog probably aren't interested. However, voting in class might be a good idea because we barely have any voters. So far, only 3 people voted (me, Kamille, Beatrice). If more voters come onto the blog, I don't think voting in class would be necessary. If there aren't many voters on the blog, I think we should vote in class.
ReplyDeleteOk Mr.Harris, thanks! Tiffany, that's true. Maybe we should stick to voting through the blog. Only three of us voted (Tiffany, Beatrice, and myself), and there appears to be a tie for the original name "The Social Studies Space" and "The History Café". Should we vote in class for the tie breaker?
ReplyDeleteI'm going to vote for
ReplyDeleteHistory Café and U.S. History Chat Spot
Doesn't voting end today? There is a tie between "The Social Studies Space" and "The History Café". Which name will win?
ReplyDeleteThanks Tiffany - the voting is now closed.
