The first blog that I found was one from Mr. Clung's sixth grade class at Noel Elementary in Missouri. Mr. Clung uses his blog to post announcements about assignments. He also posts about things that the students covered in class, using what his students did that day to educate the people reading the blog. One way he educates his readers is by using vocabulary words that have hyperlinks to further explain what he means. Here is a link to Mr. Clung's sixth grade blog: http://mcclungsblog.blogspot.com/
The other blog that I found was by a guy named Joel, who is a band director in Texas. He has a blog about teaching. He writes his personal experiences with teaching, so that others can get an up-close look at what being a teacher is really like.He also writes about some of the situations teachers will come in contact with. After each blog post, he gives related articles that pertain to what he wrote about that day. These related articles correspond to other blogs posts he has written. Here is the link to Joel's "So You Want To Teach?" blog: So You Want to Teach?
I think its cool that teachers cal help each other through blogs. It can give a fresh perspective on teacing
ReplyDeleteThe second blog you found for this was very interesting. Never would have thought a band director to use blogging. Very well done.
ReplyDeleteNice to see that teachers of all types use blogs - I did not run into that through my searches. Thanks!
