Examples Of Teacher/Class Blogs

see here
I searched for teacher blogs or class blogs and found a number of them from all over. I found one that I was very impressed with at the following address http://borderland.northernattitude.org/ This teacher, Mr. Doug is so very organized and has posted almost daily concerning what took place not only in the classroom but even teacher conferences. His blog was also nominated as a finalist for the 2006 teacher blog of the year. Using a blog seems so professional to me. It is a way for the parent, student, and teacher to be aware of studies and what takes place in the classroom.

The second most exciting blog I found was for this kindergarten class. http://www.otsd.org/Teachers/OTES/Blogs/Bergeron/bergeron.html
My own son is in kindergarten and how exciting it would be for him and even myself to get to see pictures posted and keep up with things that are coming up. This could take the place of letters that are so hard to keep up with especially for a young man in kindergarten.A sample picture is posted above. These class and teacher blogs are so cool, I can't believe there aren't more teachers using them in our area.

I will definitely use this sort of technology for my classroom, whether I end up teaching kindergarten or third grade. The possibilities are almost endless.
