After watching my four year old easily navigate my iphone, naturally move it this way and that to play ten pin bowling, I started think. How will we be able to keep up with students that don’t think that technology is amazing? These children simply believe that it is the way that it has always been. What is more amazing to them is that to view a picture from a camera….you would need to take it to a shop and leave it overnight for printing.
This sparked my interest.
I found an amazing blog in my travels. There are so many great ideas and thoughts by Ms Corfino. Check out her blog at http://kimcofino.com/
Have a look at other class blogs and decide on what your purpose for your blog is. You may want to add extra pages including news, homework…..class expectations.
These extra pages are static pages. They stay the same until you specifically change them. They are not included with posts.
To add a page click ‘pages’ and ‘add new’.
You can now add all the pluins and other media available with a post.
