Blogger

I think using a blog to share classroom news has improved my communication with parents. I also think the blog has been useful for students. Recently we used google maps to look at the Pioneer Valley through satellite images. By posting the link on my blog it provided a route for students to visit the same site at home. During our Whale unit last year, posting the links I was using in class helped students share their learning with their parents and revisit sites to explore at their own pace.
