Our Class Website

I am very excited about having a class website for the first time ever! This summer, I attended the National Educational Technology Conference in Atlanta, Georgia, along with another teacher from Sprayberry, and we learned many new, exciting ways to integrate technology in the classroom. One workshop I attended was about free software options for K-12 classrooms, and one of many strategies I learned about was how to use blogs and wikis (both free options for creating webpages for schools, organizations, businesses, personal use, etc.) for educational purposes. The main point of a blog is to chronicle the events of a day, week, etc., similar to a journal. In an educational setting, blogs can be very effective to communicate to parents what activities students participated in that day/week at school. In addition, parents can use the "Comments" feature to comment to my posts and/or communicate with each other, if they wish. My goal for this website is to involve you more in your child's education at TARGET. Happy reading! :)
