Student Blogging

We did our first set of blog posts starting in mid-January. At that time we stuck to just text. The kids enjoyed it. They really got into it and came up with some great topics. Last week we started our second set of blog posts and now we are learning how to insert hyperlinks and pictures into our posts. The students are really thinking outside the box as far as coming up with valid topics. I couldn't be more impressed with their thought processes. Our next post will include another topic (entertainment) and we will learn how to insert videos into our blog posts. I am having as much fun as the students teaching this "now" technology and really interacting with the kids. Junior high students have great ideas and this is a great way for them to share their ideas and opinions! BLOG ON!
