Thing #3 - Register your blog

I haven't gotten very far as of yet but I will get on track now! I have 2 ideas for using blogs. The first is to set up a blog for our 6th grade parents to them informed of what is going on at school since most of the notes sent home don't get home! This won't be 100% full-proof as many of my parents don't have internet access but it will help those that do! Information I would post in the blog could include due dates of projects, fundraisers, upcoming events - for example pictures, awards, homework assignment, etc The other idea I have is to set up a student blog. Since I teach English/writing, the creation of blog would aide in writing skills whether they have their own or I post samples of their writing and have the student comment on the writing piece.

Great ideas for your blogs! I think the more ways we can communicate with parents--the better. Even those that don't have access at home can sometimes access at work.
You're doing great! Keep up the good work!
