Mrs.Marisa Dudiak's, second grade class in Frederick County,MD. are using blogs. She also states that blogging helps her usually "shy" students express themselves. The blogging all began with a trip to a Native American Farm, which the children could not stop talking about. Mrs.Dudiak, likes the idea of blogging because it can be helpful on any subject. Another plus with blogging is that students can do it away from school.CLICK HERE

WEEK 4

Dr.Strange,
I have really enjoyed my experience blogging. At first I thought I would not like it, it would be boring. Now, that I know how to add pictures and hyperlinks it is pretty exiciting. I also like learning more about my computer in general.
I think blogging would be very beneficial in grade school. It would allow students to communicate with others from different countries. What better way to learn about another place than by word of mouth. It would also give students experience on the computer. The only negative aspects of blogging I can see is someone whom exploits children could start blogging. Hopefully, there is someway to keep it were only students in school could communicate and the blogging could be censored.

Hyperlink

I wanted to do a new hyperlink, so I thought I would do one on a place I have always wanted to visit, Italy. I found a good wesite.CLICK HERE
