How Classrooms Use Blogs!! 9/6/08

The first blog I found was Mrs.Gibbons 2nd grade classroom at Willowdale Elementary School in Omaha, NE. The purpose of this website was for students and parents to be able to keep up with everything that is going on in their class. In their blogs they talk about what new things they have learned, learning and soon to be learning. they do daily updates about activities and field trips, they also have weekly and monthly events posted. Which each child is allowed to personally post blogs too.In order to find out more you can visit Mrs Gibbons 2nd grade blog at http://www.mpsomaha.org

The Second classroom blog I found was, Mrs. Putnams 5th grade class at Salem Elementary School in Salem Mass. This blogs is pretty much like the other but i found it just a little more interesting. In this class blogs it tells what they have for homework everynight and through out the week. It also gives CONGRATS to students that have done well in their studies and tells the about what they are studying and reading at the moment. But the coolest thing about this blog is that they are from SALEM!!!! So I know that they have a fun HAlloween... which is soon to come!!!
