A Blog In My Classroom

For me to use a blog in my 1st grade classroom, it would have to be geared towards the parents or other teachers. I really enjoy reading other teachers' blogs about what tools and strategies they use in their classrooms. I think that I would continue with that trend. I could see myself creating a different blog just for the parents and students in my room. For that blog, I think that I could post different things that we have done in the room (kind of like a show-and-tell). It would be great to have the students as authors so that they could post things as well, but I would have to create e-mails or use the parents' e-mails to do so. I think that I could have a generic e-mail just for the class to let all of the students use to blog and post things. As a parent myself, I enjoy hearing about what my kids have done in school, but I would love to see pictures and have them write about it. This could be a great tool for parents to see what is going on in our room.

Creating a Blog

Creating this blog was very easy. The blogger site walks you through the process with ease. I am excited to add more things to the blog that could help other teachers who think the same way I do.
