SKYPE/Blogging

I have enjoyed my Skype conversations this week!  Today Shawna & I are going to Skype each others class.  We are doing a singular and plural noun activity with pumpkins!  The kids are super excited to experience this whole "Skype' thing!!  Ill let you know how it goes! :)  As far as blogging in the classroom, I would like to post student work on my classroom blog.  I think parents would enjoy reading the kids' writing and seeing the different projects we do.  I would also use blogging as a way to check for understanding of a skill or concept.
