I think I will try blogging with my student...Joyce,<br />I think I will try blogging with my students again this year. http://kidblog.org/Room7-29/ This is the address for last year's blog. You can sign in as "Guest" and use the password "Room7." I did not have much luck with parents posting; I had a parent log-in but couldn't quite get it to work, so I sent them the "guest" information. Only one parent ever wrote on the blog, and maybe one other made a reference to it in an email. I mentioned it regularly and sent the link in emails to parents and on my teacher web page. I know some parents helped kids comment on it, and add responses to reading. Maybe if it is ready by Back-to-School Night, we can look at it then. Also, we could try for more curriculum stuff and maybe photos/videos . We invited Theresa Scott's class to join us, and they commented pretty regularly. You will see that the blog last year was mostly kids asking questions and sharing personal experiences, but it was a start.<br />I also looked at Melinda's class blog, and shared it once with my class, but I don't think we ever commented on it.<br />Sue Sue Arabiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15576534240945141639noreply@blogger.com
