Blogs

Blogs are a great educational tool. Teachers can use them as a way to communicate with both the students and their parents. Parents are able to see firsthand some of the things their child is learning in the class as well as how the teacher interacts with the students. Does the teacher give clear and precise directions? Does the teacher answer questions the students have? Does the teacher put for the time to make sure every child has the necessary tools to accomplish the task? These questions and more can be addressed by the parents just by logging onto the blog page. They can communicate with the teacher and so can the students if they have any questions. Students can also share their work on the blogs. Overall Blogs are great tools that, used properly, can aid in the education of our youth.
