MRS. Williams: Recent Posts

Welcome to Mrs. Williams' Blog!

Welcome Students!

This is the first time I have ever used a Blog before in my classroom, so there may be some moments throughout the year when our standing rules may change. However for now, these are the "Standing Rules" so to speak for posting entries in my classroom blog.

Rules:

1. Please write/type in complete sentences.

2. Each entry you post will have different requirements for length, so please read the instructions first for each prompt before you start.

3. Be honest, but civil.

Many times you will be asked to state your opinion and when you do, be honest. Inevitably you will have a different opinion than one of your class mates or peers. If or when that happens, this is OK! However, you must be civil, meaning polite, when you disagree with someone's statement or their thoughts. No name calling, put downs, inappropriate language, or anything defined as bullying will be tolerated! Remember this is a school assignment, so follow the school rules at all times!

Introduction:

A "blog" is a web log. It is just like your writing journal except it's on the internet. You are able to post comments, pictures, and so much more!

We will conduct guided reading book discussions through our secure classroom blog. We will also continue to learn together by using our classroom blog to share ideas in science, social studies, and math!!

Please remember that this fun new technology is another tool we will use in the classroom to learn new things together. It is very important that we use this learning tool in an appropiate manner. When you write with paper and pencil you take ownership of what you produce. Our classroom blog is no different. You will be responsible for posting any comment or response. Use our blog wisely. If you have any questions, please ask me before you post anything that you are unsure about posting.

Happy blogging!
