Leave nothing to chance!

Last year a student in Division 16 looked up the meaning of random for us: it means lacking a plan or depending on chance. But in blogging it’s not wise to rely on chance to keep your identity safe. Take a look at my random facts below. In combination, they tell a lot about my life, but those facts don’t identify who I am, precisely where I live, when and where I do activities, or give that information about my friends or family.

So here are my 7 Random Facts:

1. I am the eldest daughter of an eldest daughter of an eldest daughter (and my only daughter is also the eldest!)
2. I love to make quilts.
3. I have sailed around the world in a tall ship.
4. I didn’t have any pets as a child, but now we have two Golden Retrievers named Luke and Solo.
5. My favourite place in the world is Fernando de Noronha, an island off Brazil.
6. I repeated Grade One, and didn’t learn to read until Grade Three.
7. I can say “Your baby is beautiful!” in Swahili.

Your task:

Look at the random facts of these students  Sophie, Daniel W., and Haley. They have used a numbered list to organize their posts.

Write your own Seven Random Facts. As you write your own, think about covering a broad range of facts that your close friends and family would know about, but that don’t give away too much about you.You are writing a quality post, so proofread and get a second pair of eyes to review your work.

Finally…

After you have written and posted yours, visit and comment on the 7 Random Facts of other Division 4 bloggers: notice surprises and connections–I bet you’ll find other bloggers whose random facts are similar to your own!
