Welcome!

Welcome to the Classroom Management that Works weblog.  The purpose of the weblog is to introduce you to a new tool that can be used in many ways in today's classrooms.  Weblogs focus on content and are easy to make and publish quickly.  We will use the weblog to encourage discussion and share ideas on classroom management.

Weblogs present many possibilities for use in the classroom. I am considering using a weblog during my classroom placement in the Netherlands to communicate with a classroom here in the States.

Mrs. Jordan,

I really enjoyed the technology class on web logs. This is a tool I will definitely use when I have my own classroom! You can use web logs for many different instructional activities.

Mrs. Jordan,

The weblog tech class has been so informative. I think it would be great to use this tool during student teaching to get feedback from my students on what they like and dislike. I think it would be a great tool for my own classroom one day as well!

This technology lab is very insightful...I like the variety in weblogs found on these sites. It is a great source for students and teachers to communicate outside of the classroom.

We are excited to use web logs in our future classrooms. It is a great way to practice our own writing skills and to have others comment on them.

Hi Mrs. Jordan,
We are weblogging- it's so exciting! Aren't you proud of us? We miss you soo much. We are anxious to talk to you about our new management book. There are many questions about some of the author's management strategies. Until then...

Hey Mrs. Jordan,
I have done something similar to this before, and I agree that blogs present great opportunities within the classroom. I think this is a great way to communicate with the students and parents. I also like how they mentioned the use of blogs with literature circles. We just talked about them on Monday and I can see how blogs would be a great way to get the students to communicate with each other on a central theme.
Good workshop, see you next week.

Mrs. Jordan,
I really enjoyed todays technology session on weblogs. This is something that I definitely want to try in the classroom because it is really a great way to communicate with parents and students. It also encourages students to write and put their ideas down. There really are endless possibilities.

Mrs. Jordan,
I am so glad that we were able to learn about Weblogs. I can't wait to use this with my class when I student teach and beginning teaching in my own classroom. I think this is a great way for parents to see what their children are doind and writing in the classroom. I also think this would be a great way for students to talk to each other and other classes about different projects/activities they are working on in class.

[Allison Risher]

I love this technology session Mrs. Jordan! It has been very helpful in allowing us to see ideas for opening the lines of communication to students and parents and developing student interest in writing.

[Rachael]

I learned a lot today about weblogs--great ideas for the classroom. They're also a great forum for class discussions about assignments, etc. This tech. session was very worthwhile.

[Tiana Covington]

This is a great website. I am glad that I can learn from the best.

Hi Mrs. Jordan,

I love all the great ideas presented in the weblog technology class! I especially like the opportunity for students to make suggestions regarding classroom instruction. I feel student input is the best way to keep lessons engaging and interesting for all involved.

Mrs. Jordan,
I think this technology session on weblogs was very informative. I think this form of technology would be very useful in creating writers' logs. Students could be given a topic to focus on during their assigned readings to write about.

[Ashley Rolader]

Mrs. Jordon,
I think that web logs could be fun, especially with the older kids. I know that in my experience thus far, children in fourth and fifth grades love to express their opinions, and this would be a controlled way for them to do so.
