First blog post!

I'm looking forward to learning more about blogs and how they could be used as a classroom writing activity.  This form of writing could be fun and interactive for students, especially if we could get family and friends to follow our blog.  My clinical faculty uses a lot of technology in the classroom, and on Friday the 4th grade class is learning to make websites by making a site about our field trip to Jamestown.  Whenever she teaches a new technology tool, she starts with a fun project  before having them do something more meaningful so learning the technology does not get in the way of the intended product later on.
