Blogging in The Classroom

The first article I found was written by Jeffrey Selingo and published by The New York Times. In this article two teachers from Frederick County, Maryland share their success stories of blogging in the classroom. Mrs Dudiak who teaches second grade was the first to be featured in this article. She used the blogs as an online journal for her students. She said that blogging helped her quieter student express themselves and be more involved in the class. Mrs. Poling who teaches third grade said that online blogs were easier to grade and respond to than a hand written journals.
