Thing #3

I would use a blog in my classroom for a couple of reasons. I would get the children in my classroom write a blog about how their day was, what they learned, and what they did not understand. Also, have them include what they liked the best and the worst. If the children had an idea on something to do in class, have them write in the blog. I think using a blog would be so helpful with ideas and helping you as a teacher understand exactly what the children like and do not like. The blog would also be helpful to students who are shy and too quiet to talk during class and give their opinion.

Thing #2

When creating this blog it was a little difficult for me to do because I have never created a blog before. It was definitely an experience. Creating my avatar was fun. Although I tried to make it look like me, it just did not turn out that well. My avatar does have the same hair, eye, and skin color as me. When chosing the name for my blog, I went very simple. I just went with my name so that it would be pretty easy to see whose blog you were reading.
