Welcome to our blogs. We are a fourth grade class in Colorado, and we’ll be posting our blogs throughout the school year. Some of the students’ blogs will be responses to assignments; some will be sharing their creative writings; and some will just want to strike up a conversation – or friendship – with their readers. We hope you stop by often, and enjoy the writings. We also hope that you share your thoughts and some information about yourself, your school, and your geographic location. Happy blogging!!!!

Colorado History Want to hear some facts about Colorado? Well you came to the right place! Colorado is not only known for the Rocky Mountains, but for its unique name. In Spanish, Colorado meant color red. The explorers who called it color red are Dominguez and Escalante. They came in 1776. How they got the name is one day they found a river that was red because of the soil so they called it the red river.

Another interesting fact about Colorado is a fames explorer is John C. Freemont. John c. Freemont came here because he and his team went to build a railroad through the Rocky Mountains, but they failed to build a railroad. There is also a county named Freemont.They came in 1848.

Do you know how Colorado got so populated? Colorado got populated because there was a gold strike in the Red River so more, and more people went to get gold. Soon there was no more gold and the people went away. But later another gold strike was found. So all the people came back and stayed. There is still gold there.Mining took place during 1850-1900

I would like to know about your country and please tell me were you are from the globe. Thanks for reading my story!!!
