Welcome to the new school year. I just want to give you a quick overview of this blog. I think of this blog (or web log)as the door way to our classroom news. On this page, you will find lots of photos of things we do, kid postings, a podcast, links, and updates.
If you click on the parent link on the right side, that will take you to my webpage on teacher web. The web page stores all of the classroom information. This is where you will find classroom newsletters, calendars, announcements, homework, forms, a place to e-mail me, a place for kids to e-mail lucy, and other general classroom information.
Clicking on the student link on the right side, takes you to my blog for students. This is the page that will be kept on the screen in our room and the place for kids to go for all their stuff. It has a countdown for various activities, games, puzzles, coloring pages, a virtual pet and other items they have requested or we need for class.
The teacher link takes you to the page where I am going to record teaching resources, lessons, links and a photo documentation of technology I am trying in the classroom.
I have put a lot of work in to my sites this summer and hope everyone will take time to explore them. We are going to be incorporating lots of technology this year (blogging, podcasts, digital storytelling, skype, movie making and so much more). If the technology overwhelms you, I will be having a parent information session one evening in September. Watch for the announcement to come home. Food and child care will be provided.
