C4K Ms. Yollis Class Blog

Ms. Yollis class bolg is fabulous. Ms. Yollis is a third grade teacher in Los Angeles, California. She also tells us that she is a student herself recently receiving her masters degree. She loves to travel. The pictures she put up of swimming with turtles is for sure worth viewing. She has done an outstanding job creating a fun way for her students to learn. Her blog is full of fun and fascinating ways for the students to understand materials in a new way. Her Blog count is at 75,679, which is really awesome. She deserves the credit she gets. She really seems like she takes a lot of time doing this blog and making it spectacular. Her blog has won awards for 1st runner up 2010 EDU Blog Award for Best Class Blog. Her blog also won the Lifetime Achievement award. It seems that all of her hard work is paying off.

I viewed a video that she created called The Reading Round Up. In the video she pretends to be Sheriff Yollis. It was so cute! She reviews the terms and demonstrates the differences between fiction and non-fiction. I thought that this was a really creative and fun way for her students to learn. I think that this is far more entertaining than a teacher standing in front of the room writing the definitions on the marker board. Way to go Sheriff Yollis! Well done!
