Thing #3: Register your Blog

I would love to create a blog for my students and their parents. It would be a great place to post classroom presentations on course material, assignments with rubrics, projects submitted by students, study guides, links to websites with challenging activities and tutorials, and detailed steps on how to do experiments at home. A blog would serve as a place where parents can see what their child and other students are doing in the classroom. Because the blog would not necessarily have to be limited to the information covered in the classroom, I believe it would be a great resource for students who take a deeper interest in the material. I also think a blog would serve as a great resource for a new teacher to post lessons learned for other new teachers.
