WEEK 4- Using Blogs in the classroom

I recently searched Google for teacher's in the United States using Blogger.com in their classroom. I found out that many teacher's do in fact use this web-site very often.
One teacher I found uses her web-site to communicate with parent's as well as her student's. She allows for them to comment on whatever they like or dislike and always responds back to them. I thought this was a very useful idea. This would make it very easy for parent's to communicate with their child's teacher when they have question's or concerns.

This web-site unfortunately did not have any picture's that I could post on here but, it did have a few video's that I thought would be very useful if I was their student or a parent.

Daniel Mclntyre uses blogger.com in his 12Th grade Calculus class. He requires that each day his student's make a post on their blog with the note's from class. He also post picture's, table's, and guides with the note's to help his student's further understand his lesson's.

This web-site did not have any picture's I could use either.
