I am brand new to blogging but hope to discover some wonderful uses for my classroom. I am a 4th grade teacher and would love for my students to be able to blog to help them enhance their writing skills and to reach out to a larger audience. I've set up this blog as a requirement for a Master's course that I am taking. The idea is that if I begin to get comfortable with the technology on my own I will then begin to use it in my classroom. It is so important that we incorporate technology into our classroom as this is the world our students have grown up in and it will be the world will send them out to.
If anyone has any great ideas on how they use Blogs in their classroom I'd love to hear from you. Also if you know a teacher who is currently using a Blog in his/her classroom I would love to check it out. As I get ideas from my classmates I will post them so we can all learn from each other. I look forward to hearing your ideas.
