This is my first time using a blog and I have enjoyed it. It can allow you to get your views across easily and quickly. I don't think I'd personally use blogger from now on, I find web 2.0 apps like Facebook and Twitter easier to use.

My First Time using a Blog

Reading Week
As I have two exams next week I have reading week. For the second half of the week I went home. It took me a while to get home due to the snow, but I got there finally!
After doing some revision I went out in the snow with my little sisters... we had so much fun... I think I was more excited than them!

Blog Review (PROJECT)
Blogger is an easy way to read
others thoughts and opinions, as well as see blogs related to things your
interested in.
I found http://theinnovativeeducator.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/8-ways-to-assess-without-standardized.html a
really interesting read.
There was loads of posts which I found interesting, once I started reading it I couldn't stop!
I agree with the fact that standardized tests are not always what’s best for learning. Although I don't think they should be abolished completely.
Tests are important to see how children’s knowledge is developing, but I do think they put unnecessary pressure on students.
I think communication is key to learning, and children should feel like they are getting the right approach to their individual learning style.
The blog has a variety of posts, all which I find interesting in one way or another. The labels allow for you to be transferred to related posts quickly and to other bloggers sites. I like how the posts are so popular so there are always comments to read to see other people’s views, and I can post my own views for others to see.
The blog has nearly 5,000 followers, showing how popular it is!

Revision Time
Sooooo I've got exams at the end of January... I'm really nervous!
I don't really know what to expect for my first lot of exams at university so I've been revising loads!
Living in halls its hard to get a quiet 5 minutes, but I've just been locking myself in my room!
LET IT SNOW!
Well, I woke up on Friday morning to a blanket of snow! I was surprised about how much there was, I had been up till 2.30am and there wasn't any sign but by 8am there was loads!
Uni was cancelled.... much to everyones delight!
We all went outside and had a snowball fight which was fun!
I only lasted 10 minutes outside, I was cold and didn't have any gloves... well that was my excuse!

By Sunday we had spent 3days stuck on campus, no one wanted to go outside with the ice!
Lets just say i've never watched so many films in my life!

House Hunting :D
Towards the end of last term we began discussing houses for next year. In the end there was eight of us that decided we wanted to live together from halls, four girls and four boys.
As there weren't that many eight bed-roomed houses in Swansea we began looking quickly.
As we are all doing different courses it was hard to pick a central house for all of us as were all on different campuses.
After looking at three houses we decided we'd found the one we wanted.
Signing the contracts made me feel really grown up, and not having to ask my parents for help with the deposit felt great, I finally felt like a grown up in the big wide world!
Everything's been signed and paid for with the house now, so we can chill out until September arrives when we have our house at the beginning of our second year... it seems like ages away but I know it will fly :D
