Thing 3

A few different ways that I will use a blog in my future classroom will be to have it on my classroom website that I create.  Not only will there be a blog about who I am and my hobbies and interests so my students will have a better understanding of who I am, but I would like them to create blogs about themselves.  I think it will be a neat way of introducing and expressing themselves.  This blog assignment would also be considered a creative writing assignment and will be worth a grade of some sort. 
Another way that I can use a blog would be to keep my students' parents updated on classroom events and just to keep them posted on everyday or weekly things we are doing in the class. 
Lastly, a blog can keep you in communication with other teachers and educators.  I will be able to share my lesson plans and classroom practices with others and in return see what they have to say and share with me.
