Last week was the first time that I have ever used a blog in my classroom and to my surprise it went well. I have found this great educational blog website that is free and safe for teachers and students. I as the teacher, have discretion upon what to and what not to post. I thought that this feature was great considering how students can be inappropriate at times. I used this as an individual assessment tool but I think that it could be more conducive to student learning in a small group setting. Particularly I plan to use this frequently in my upcoming book clubs as a way for my kids to respond to one another while also gaining experience in using technology. They love using the laptop computers that are available at my school and I feel that the use of this blog website will be extremely motivating and engaging for them.
