Blogging Possibilites

I think that blogging will be very useful in my future classroom. I think that students will really like it because they will be able to talk about anything they want and respond to their classmates ideas. I could also use this and post different and fun websites on the blog for the students to explore and see how well they like them. Blogs can also be used for students to learn about creative writing. If they have a chance to pick a topic and blog about it, they might be more excited about writing and use their imaginations more. Blogging is a great way to teach grammar, creative writing, and also to incorporate technology into the classroom.

    I am glad that you know a lot more about blogging than I do. Hopefully, I will be able to learn a lot from you! your ideas about how to use blogging in the classroom are great ways to incorporate technology into your lessons. I think that students will be very interested in assignments if they are allowed to use technology. Children are being exposed to technology at very young ages. It is a great way to get them interested and engaged in learning!

  2. Hi Emily! Thank you for inviting me to your blog. I like your ideas about using blogs in the classroom to get students interested in writing. Sometimes just changing up the typical paper-pencil format is a way to engage students. Blogs also enable you to provide formative feedback to your students. What are you doing in your classroom right now that you and your students might blog about?
