Hey Everyone!
I have finally gotten the hang of this blogger website..I think!
Some different ways I would use Blogger would be for instance using it like a live journal to recapture my lesson plan for the day. I would post it in my blog so that maybe other teachers could comment on it and possibly help me to make the lesson better or more fit with the age group I am working with. Another example of using the blog in the classroom could be with older kids maybe having a class discussion blog where everyone could share their thoughts on what is being taught and what they need help on in the class. Some other ideas for using the blog could be describing what worked and what didn't work in the classroom for me, providing how to's on homework problems, and possibly even getting other teachers advise throughout the year by communicating on the blog. I think using the Blogger website in the classroom is a great idea and I also feel that in the long run it may help statistics in the classroom, as far as writing skills and possibly test grades because they could discuss what they are having problems with that day or week.
So long..talk at everyone soon :)

Thing #2
Hello Again!
Creating my blog, like I said in my first post was rather easy. My fiance is a computer whiz so he helped me out alot..I like to call it teamwork. I decided on my blog name by using my last name and then something fun and catchy to go along with it. Actually figuring out how to post something was also easy as well, basically it's like a live journal, you just talk about different things on your mind. Creating my avatar was alot of fun! I definitely think it reflects who I am. My hair color is blonde and I'm a natural blonde, I have green blue eyes but since my favorite color is green I went with green eyes, my outfit is very simple and I feel that I am a simple person, and lastly my shoes, I chose tennis shoes because I am athletic and tennis shoes represents that I think.
Hopefully this was another successful blog!
Catch up with everyone later :)

Hello All!
After reading and listening to 7 1/2 Habits of Highly Successful Lifelong Learners, I came to the conclusion that my easiest habit would be Habit 7 1/2, to Play. I feel that it makes it easier for students to learn if the lesson is not only educational but fun as well. This will help keep the student's attention on the lesson rather than day dreaming. The hardest habit for me is Habit 4, Having Confidence in Yourself as an Effective Learner. When it comes to school work and studying for me I always jump right to "I don't understand." I never take the time to actually practice problems or look over something twice instead of once. I need to build my confidence in learning if I would to become an effective teacher.
Setting up my blog was farely easy, with the help of my fiance and my brain we got it done within a few minutes. I hope to learn all kinds of interesting ideas through Web 2.0 and I hope my first blog wasn't a failure. I look forward to writing more post in the future :)
