The first classroom blog I chose to give a closer look was "Mrs. Hopkins' American Literature Class Blog". The blog idea is very creative and fun. Mrs. Hopkins assigned each student a character who's point of view they will blog from. It is a day journal kept by the students who are writing from the perspectives of their assigned characters. The students must use the names assigned and write things that are relevant to the characters time period. This is a great way to teach the students by using a hands on tool. If you would like to see the blog for yourself CLICK HERE
The second blog I chose was "Mr. C's Class Blog". It blew me out of the water. This blog is so in depth. It has numerous videos of classroom activities. The blog also interacts with blogs of other classrooms who may be studying the same material or posting items that the class may find useful. The information that can be attained on Mr. C's blog is an encouragement to me as a future educator. You can view a live stream of his classroom and lab. This would be an amazing tool for parents who wanted to be active in their child's education. To view Mr. C's Class Blog and check out the classroom's live feed CLICK HERE

I have learned so much since I started blogging, but the most important lesson I have learned is that the people I have met through it has made my professional and personal life much richer. I am pleased that you think so highly of my blog and I wish you good luck with your chosen profession.

Thank you! Your post to Mr. C's blog, and his response, have taught me to suggest that all students leave comments when they visit the blogs of other classes. See the latest blog post on the class blog! You have made Project 6 a LOT easier for everyone. They should thank you also!
