Two Blogs/Comments
Blog #1: http://jhh.blogs.com/webwriters/
(I love how kid-friendly this site is! It's powerful because each child's blog is available and there are so many resources for them while they write! It is an online diary of their processes, but also of who they are as a human, and there is something really compelling about the computer-ready medium that lends itself to feeling more open, more willing to share with your audience. While this is the gift of blogging, it is also a double-edged sword...to be wielded with the protection of a guide and coach while learning and sharing.)
Blog #2: http://www.dawnsbrain.com/
(Ok, other than the fact that this site is visually yummy and very inviting, I love that the teacher is reflecting openly about what impacts her classroom. The organization of the website is easy to navigate as well. I want to put lessons on my blog that enable students to go through the entire lesson from home. Although I believe that nothing replaces the physical presence of your mentor, online learning is compelling! Podcasting/web video is something I want to add to my site as a support for traveling students, sick students, and parents.)
