    This was very interesting to me because I made up a Jeopardy game just like this for one of my classes last semester. I think it would be a good idea for a review before a test because it would get students to pay attention since it is fun.

    I think this is very interesting because it uses things students are interested in. Graphs are a good way for students to visualize what they are trying to say and understand.

Dealing with student blogs at the end of the school year! | The Edublogger - 1 views

  • But, what I really love, is that I am able to use the old comments to teach my new students *how* to comment. Already, many of my third graders are commenting on our blog and what they are writing is very good!

      I like this idea because 3rd graders are still concrete learners and they would probably benefit from seeing previous comments and how they are set up in order to understand how to correctly comment on a blog.

Share your Blogging Experience and Tips For Educators New To Blogging - 4 views

  • Even though we’re just beginning to use it, students appear to take greater care in their writing because others besides me will read it.

      I think this is so true. Many students will just try to get by when writing, but with blogging, there's more than just the teacher reading it, so it gives them an incentive to write better.
  • have a live connection by your desk at Parent-Teacher meeting so the students can show the blog to their parents while they wait to speak to you. I also had a slip of paper with the address on to give to them to take away.

      I think this is a great idea. It allows students to take ownership over their blog and feel proud of how they are doing on it. Parent-teacher night would be good, but maybe parent conferences would be a better time because teachers can spend more time explaining the blog to the parents.
  • a blog for our staff (secondary school) called the Reading Cafe.

      I think this would be a great idea for school faculty--to have a blog set up where fellow teachers within the same school can share ideas and activities. This would allow busy teachers to have good activities posted by others, while making sure it would go with the district's curriculum.
