Blog -- (weB LOG) on the Web:
A blog is basically a journal that is available on the web. The activity of updating a blog is "blogging" and someone who keeps a blog is a "blogger."  We use a modified form that sends submissions to the webmaster for approval and posting.  Blogging is a classroom activity initiated by the teacher. Submissions are not automatically posted. Unsolicited, inappropriate or spamming submissions will not make it to the website.

The History Kids had a special visitor on Friday.  SGT Daniel E. and his buddy, Mr. Big Eyes, stopped by while on leave from Iraq.
