Week 2

Week 2 was more about blogs -- which at this time seem not to be appropriate for kindergarten. We also started talking about WIKIs and ways to use them and I find them more appropriate for kindergarten students.  I even found a kindergarten WIKI that was called the Kindergarten Counting Book where the students took pictures of making groups of things from 1-100 and then the teacher put up the pictures.  It was very cute.  I would like to do an ABC book with my students as we get more into the year.

Hi Crystal. I hope the resources I posted in the Ning (http://cedu534-k-1008.ning.com/notes/Kindergarten_Blogs) help you in seeing how some K folks are using blogs. I'm sure you could find more.

Thank you for taking the time to find some kindergarten blogs. I had actually seen the first kindergarten blog site kindergarten tales before you had put it up and I really like that blog -- actually put in on my bloglines page. I do like what the kindergarten teachers did with their blogs but I would like to integrate more student friendly learning technology in my classroom and find more uses in other technology (instead of blogs).
