The Blogs are Coming! The Blogs are Coming!

Posted by: Brian | October 8, 2007 |

An educator never stops learning or growing professionally. Sometimes, this is fun and adventurous, and sometimes this is a stretch! My colleagues have been showing me the great possibilities of blogging (Deloris and Ruth–you ROCK!). Are you interested in having one for your class? Check Debbie’s blog for examples of how a blog is used for instruction.

The I.T. department is going to announce in a couple of weeks of how you, a classroom teacher, can apply to get your own blog for your classroom. Also, Ruth is planning future workshops to train interested personnel.

In the meantime, I’ve been reading about effective strategies and found this post on Cool Cat Teachers that discusses effective strategies for blogging. Enjoy!

If you don’t use it for anything other than an information board for parents and homework listing, it’s well worth it. I suggest getting one per grade level to share among the teachers. It’s a great way to post project directions for parents whose children lose their instruction sheets. They can download them and print them out themselves.
