I like your classroom blog, specifically the photos and videos you include. Do your students have their own blogs, as well?

 

One suggestion: I didn't see a visitor map (like the one in the right sidebar here). Those can be really fun for students -- they see that their voice is being heard world-wide, plus it's a good opportunity for some geography lessons.

Thanks very much for your time and consideration!  I will check out how to add the visitor bar! Do you have a blog?  Any you like to read that you can refer me to?

Thanks again,

Jennifer

Jennifer,

 

I have an edtech blog aimed at teachers called Stretch Your Digital Dollar. On the right sidebar of my blog, I list some of my favorites, including Free Technology for Teachers, The Edublogger and The Thinking Stick.

 

Good luck!

Hi Jennifer,

Your blog is looking good and I really like your YouTube channel.

One suggestion from me is that the background image makes the right hand navigation links a little hard to see.

You could have an all black background or modify the background image so that the middle and right hand side is black.

This can be done in any image editing program. If you need help with this let me know.

It's great to see another teacher enthusiastic about technology in the classroom.
