For those that don't know, the Liebster Award is an online recognition for 'new' blogs by their peers. It is only awarded to blogs with less than 200 followers in an attempt to send more readers their way. The rules differ according to who has nominated you, but I will use the ones given by Ashley.
1. In your post, be sure to link back to your nominator as a shout out and a thank you!
2. Answer the 11 questions given to you.
3. Nominate 11 blogs of your choice who have less than 200 followers. Provide them with 11 questions or ask them to answer the questions above.
4. Let your nominees know they've been nominated and provide them with a link you your post so that they can accept.
5. Send your nominator the link to your post, so they can learn more about you... leave it in the comments!
I was first nominated in February 2014 and to receive another nomination is so flattering. I am struggling with keeping my blog updated this year, so it is greatly appreciated to find others reading and enjoying my blog enough to want to nominate me again.
Right here goes...
1. Why and how long ago did you start blogging?
I started blogging in November 2013 after reading blogs such as Clever Classroom and Oh' Boy 4th Grade to get inspired.
2. What 1 word sums up the heart of your blog?
Random
3. Is there something you learned late in your blog journey you wished you knew before?
Don't be scared to put your ideas out there. I've read posts by other bloggers giving tips that I already knew, but didn't think were innovative enough to share, but I should have just written them!
4. What is your favourite past time other than blogging?
5. How many hours a week do you dedicate to your blog?
An embarrassingly small number. When I'm into it, several in a go, but then nothing for weeks...
6. What category of blog post do you enjoy the most?
Those that have both teaching tips with personal anecdotes. A Teeny Tiny Teacher is the perfect example of this.
My favourite link ups! Random things from my classroom.
8. Which post have you written that you are most proud of?
My post debut-ing my blog design which I posted a freebie on. This freebie was then selected to be the featured freebie by Teaching Blog Addicts. I was so proud!
9. Is there any post that you have been planning on doing but have been postponing for a while?
This one!!
10. What is your favourite thing about blogging?
Getting new ideas to use in my practice.
11. What recipe, project or idea on my blog would you most likely try yourself?
The Super Improvers Wall is something I'm definitely going to be considering for my classroom next year.
My nominees (not 11, sorry!):
A UK-based blog full of innovative ideas for Early Years (Kindergarten).
Mrs Krevat has already received the Liebster Award before, but I can't help nominating her again as I love her blog!
