Thing 1

By learning 8 things, I hope to have a better understanding of a blog and how to use it. I would like to use a blog as communication tool as well as something that is fun to use and look at. Creating and designing a blog is not hard, it just takes time and creativity. I liked the information from the day to day activities. It made you feel like you were apart of the learning enviroment. I liked the pictures and videos from some of the blogs. It is a nice way to show what is going on in the classroom and around the school. Some of the blogs had information and pictures about the animals they learned about. I did not like all the extra stuff, like ads, it made the blog look to busy. I like the simplicity of blogs that are easy to read. Having my thoughs and words posted on the internet make me more aware of what I write. I have to make sure of what I am trying to say comes across the correct way. If it is not worded correctly someone can take what I am saying the wrong way. I can create a p.e. blog to communicate with students, parents, and elementary staff. I can use it as an informative tool on health and nutrition. I can post important informaion about what is going on in class. I feel that learning how to create and use a blog is a good thing.
