If you’ve made it this far, you already have three items or “things” completed of the ’23 Things.’ We hope you are enjoying the adventure so far and having fun. Remember to share with colleagues knowledge or experience that may help them out if they get stuck or vice versa!
But how do you qualify for the special recognition? Good question! You need to do two things. You register your blog with the IHMS Classroom 2.0 Team, plus you record your progress on each of the ‘23 things’ on your blog. Reminder: Clearly identify each exercise (THING) in your entries. The 2.0 Team will track and verify your progress in a log that they will maintain. So, here’s Thing #4 -- Register your blog by sending an e-mail to IHMS Classroom 2.0. In the e-mail be sure to give your team your blog URL.
Remember … your blog address is in the format http://insertname.blogspot.com/It’s really that easy and just think, now there’s only 17 more things to go. :)
Curriculum Connections
1. Idea #1: A blog is an excellent device for home-school communications. Daily assignments/homework/special school announcements can be posted on your blog and then your students and/or their parents can “subscribe” to your blog.
2. Idea #2: A blog is an excellent forum for discussion of issues. Create one for the next school, local, state, or national election and discuss the issues of the day.
3. Idea #3: A book discussion blog is a language arts favorite. Start one today and then branch out into other topics such as pro/con topics of interest, student opinion surveys, or campus activity discussions.
