THING 3!

I think that blogging is great for the educational environment. A school, a grade, a team, or a group of teachers could create a blog in order to communicate and share ideas. It is possible to create a private blog that only a specific group of teachers can look at. I personally would love to use my blog to communicate with parents about what is going on in the classroom! I could update the blog weekly or even daily on what is going on! I can include daily objectives, assignments, class projects etc. I could also include links for extra practice for what we are learning in the classroom. If I am teaching high school, I could have a blog for students to use to keep up with assignments, extra practice, extra credit, reminders, and updates. It is also possible to set up a subscribe to blog by email; therefore, parents or students can receive my blog updates through email. That way they won't have to worry about checking the class blog along with their email.

The link provided for ideas for classroom blogging was very good! I am adding it for easy access in the future.
