Blogs in the Classroom
1) http://blogs.birmingham.k12.mi.us/heck/
2) Blog Description:
This is Mrs. Heck's classroom blog. It is for her 3rd grade parents and students. She has reading log on the blog to keep track of her students reading. She has also included resources and online learning games and activities for the students. These games include each subject. She lists science, math, social studies and language games and activities separately. She uses the blog to keep the parents and students updated on what is going on in the classroom. It was last updated Saturday, October 9, 2010. My favorite thing is Heck's Happening. It is a cute and catchy way to title what is going on in her classroom. If I were to change anything on this blog it might be the design. I would want to make it a little more fun and exciting to entice the parents and students to visit more.
3) This blog makes me want to create a blog for my classroom. It shows what a good tool blogging is to facilitate and guide children's learning at home and in the classroom. It is also a handy spot to provide links for the students and parents to work on together at home. Maybe most importantly to me, it opens communication lines even more between parents and myself. Parents can comment, ask questions, and feel included in their child's education.
