Classroom Blog

In December of 2005, I created a classroom blog as a place for students, parents, and the community to share their thoughts. I've used it as a space to link to classroom projects, as well as a space for the students to locate information and respond with their thoughts about literature. I was very impressed with their responses to most of the Love That Dog postings. We read the book, by Sharon Creech, together in school and then the students blogged with their thoughts about certain parts. They enjoyed sharing their thoughts through a different venue (in a blog vs. a traditional journal).
