Classes on a Forum

So Zen and I are working to create a forum, where we can have the classes. We are still working out all the bugs (and there are a LOT of them) but we will have it up soon. We are hoping to have classes start in a week or 2, now that we have gotten a ton more people. If every single person who has viewed our blog told 1 friend, who told 1 friend, we could reach.... drumroll please.... 645 viewers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  In the past 2 days, we have had 75 views, which is half of how many views we have had in the past 30 days!!!!! Our site is taking off! Just help it to keep growing. Sign up for our free, online classes!
P.S.
Thanks so much Liz, for posting on student blogs. Your work is greatly appreciated. In reward for doing that, you have won 2 free classes you can take! Even though the classes are free anyway!

Classes

These are all the classes being offered, and their teacher listed above it. Each teacher, which happens to be at the moment only Zen and I, are each teaching 1 class. So whatever of the classes we are offering gets 2 kids first, is the one we will teach, unless something else happens.
Zen:
Cooking
Fashion
Wildlife Naturalist
ABLO (A Better Life Organization, helps against animal abuse, environmental health, and human rights, otherwise knows as Green Team) 
Cryptozoology

Ideas for new Classes

Listen, I know not much has been happening here. Would more choices help that? Some other classes that if did go up would be taught by me, are here:

Cooking
Fashion
Wildlife Naturalist
ABLO (A Better Life Organization, helps against animal abuse, environmental health, and human rights, otherwise knows as Green Team)

Any other ideas are welcome. -Zen

Classes

What classes are you interested in taking? We have Cryptozoology open, and not one person has signed up! Don't be afraid people, to sign up.

On another note, I have decided to open up the Homework help section of our blog. I am going to have posts labeled with subjects, and all you need to do is reply. Reply with the question you have, and when it is due. I will at least try to help you, as we don't have enough people. Please people, tell your classmates, tell your friends, tell everyone you know about this blog! Since we opened it, we have had only 120 views, and not a SINGLE post! This site is for you! It is not for me to write about stuff, and you to read it. It is for you, the students, you the teachers, you the kids, to post and reply about something you care about! So you can learn anything you want!

How to get people...

So I have been trying EVERYTHING to get more people. I have posted this blog on so many blog catalogs, it's not funny. There is now a new feature though! Anyone can comment! I hope this will help make it so people will sign up for classes! The cryptozoology class is still open for people to sign up, all you need to do is go to the Classes tab, click comment on the article about cryptozoology, and post something to the affect of "I want to join!". When you sign up, put at the top or bottom, if you do not have a blogger account, a user name for yourself. This will allow my friend Zen  to know which anonymous user is which.

Welcome

Today, I came up with the idea for this blog. I have been bored in school for a while now. Its just moving too slow. So, because of the snow day, I was searching around for online classes I could take. Free, interesting ones designed for me. There were none. Not 1 interesting, kid friendly class! So I thought, what if I could make something, where kids could take interesting classes.  Then I thought, kids learn best when they teach each other. So I came up with an idea. What if kids could start classes, in topics they like? They could teach each other the stuff they are good at, and others could learn.  And not just school topics. There could be classes about baseball, either how to play it better, how to understand it while watching it, or about the history of it. There could be gardening classes, and beading classes. Classes that kids want to take. That we could learn from. Book clubs, homework help, peer review for stories and essays. Anything. This website goes, where the students take it. If it gets so large, that almost everyone uses it, cool. But if it stays to a couple kids, that just want to have fun, that's cool too. This site, is for us to learn anything we want to learn. To help those who are bored, get interested. To find new hobbies. To pass that test, hit that home run, win a ribbon. Anything, is possible. And the best thing about this, is that it is free! No need to pay thousands of dollars for boring classes!
