Conclusion

Now That I have critqued blogging in the classroom, i now understand that blogging can be really good for children as they have the chance to write heaps of things in their own blog. teachers need to understand that they need to draw limits to what children can or cannot do. If i was going to use blogging in my classroom i would have all the children's blog sites linked to my personal one so that i could keep track of what they are writing. this will allow me to post my own blogs on homework and even give feedback.

Blogging will be a geat idea to use for my classroom as i could download newsletters on my blog where parents can check them. This is because, from experience children either lose or throw away newsletters and parents mostly never get them.

In conclusion i feel that blogging is a great tool for the classroom and it is becomming easier to use. it is also free which makes it an easy tool to get hold of. i feel that teachers should consider using this blogging technique into the classrooms as it could motivate students to write and it could also make the classroom environment fun. Plus it's FREE!!! why not use this excuse as a way to lighten up a child's day at school (or home)?!
