Week 1 - Thing 2

I haven't set up a blog for my students yet, but think this would be a fun thing to try in the future. I did look at each of the blog links listed in the 20/20 Things. My favorite was the Sullivan BookBlog. I thought it was set up nicely with much information about what's going on and presented in a way to share unique ideas to that school. In fact, I might try some next year. I really like the Crunchin' Munchin Gaming Luncheon that was talked of in the post regarding the new cafe'. I can see how this blog is informative of how literacy is being promoted in that particular school and in corporating the technology piece makes it even better. As good as this blog is set up, I'm surprised not to see more numbers in the reaction posts on that blog. I thought the Uclan student elections 2008 was nicely done, too. That's a fun way to keep kids informed of this type of event. I couldn't get to the Peanut Gallery: Ms. Gold's Classroom Blog when I clicked on it. Maybe it's inactive now. The 817 Math blog site was ok in my opinion. Maybe if there was more activity on it, it would seem a bit better.
