Blogging in Schools


One blog I found was for Grandview Elementary's library. You can find their blog at http://www.grandviewlibrary.org/default.aspx. This blog is really cool because it seems centered towards the parents of k-3 graders. This site gives ideas on reading projects, what books to have children read at their level, and also gives advice to parents to read more chalanging literature to their young children to help expand their minds. I love that Grandview's blog links grades to projects and to the different teachers as well.



Another blog I found was for an Elementary teacher in Oregon. This site can be found at http://elementaryteacherblog.blogspot.com/. This site is also directed towards the parents and informs them of the things happening in the classroom, and also about the teacher. Personally, I feel the teacher disclosed too much personal information about herself that made her seem like she wouldn't be that great of a teacher. But, maybe it makes the parents feel like they know her on a personal level, and trust her more with their children.
