Blogging

I spent some time looking through Richard Byrne's blog freetech4teachers.com. Here's a link to his blog - http://www.freetech4teachers.com.  He is a wealth of information.  I found his blog to be extremely useful.  I like the way he organized his page.  The advertisements were handy and had great resources.  I have used both Spelling City and Class Dojo so I was familiar with both of those but I know other teachers will love them too.  He had so many great things on his blog that I marked it in my favorites to come back and view often.  If I keep up with all the new stuff he posts I will become the techie in my building. =)

He had a post about Scootpad.  I just recently heard about it and downloaded Scootpad.  His most recent post was my favorite.  I love Dropbox but am leery about what I put out there.  I know longer have a Facebook account after it was hacked and then of course deleted.  I think it's important that our information is secure and his post had a way to do a two step protect.  I will definitely be using his resources on that one. 

I love to read blogs.  I have many in my favorites that I spend time reading and finding all kinds of fabulous resources.  I would love to make this blog a great resource to my parents and students.  I think it could be just one more way I can improve communication from home to school.

  1. I love to read blogs too! Byrne has so many tremendous resources. It is sure a great place to swing by, read a post, and learn something new. This is the best way to communicate between home and school. Parents can access blogs on the go and leave a comment too!
