Bloggin projects

I had a student create a blog to keep track of his 'going green' as a semester project. It was modeled after the blog created by "no impact man" and it was cute! He attempted to make some of the same changes and keep a blog about it throughout the semester.

Fun and Exciting

I think blogging in the classroom will be fun and enjoyable for my students.

Blogging Experience

Blogging is really not my thing but I still look forward in doing so. In this era, I need to more aware on the different ways I can interact with my friends, family, students and colleagues using technology. I am positive that this experience will be a very meaningful one.

Jessica's first post

I really like blogging but right now I have nothing to really say.  I will have something to say later though.  Just be patient with me.  UNDER CONSTRUCTION! 

Spanish with Mrs. Milligan

I'm excited about my students blogging in Spanish to use their current vocabulary and expand their writing skills in the foreign language. It will be interesting to see how their communication skills grow in the target language and I think this will encourage them to use the language more often.
We used a blog for writing about what we were thankful for at Thanksgiving.

Using blogging for EC students.

Lisa: Using blogging for children that struggle with tradition methods of learning, invites them to use alternative methods of learning. It also gives them an avenue to express themselves without the demands of handwriting. The physical mechanics of writing are difficult for many of my students and they dislike writing greatly. However the new and exciting world of technology is motivating and essentially tricks them into writing.  I am excited to return to my classroom and begin using this tool with my students.
