Although I have never blogged myself, I frequently visit blogs written by other people. I love to do crafts and hands-on activities and I am usually able to find great ideas from blogs. I personally have never written a blog because I have never felt as though I have had anything interesting to write about. I am hoping through starting this blog I will overcome my doubts about my writing.
It has become increasingly popular in the past years for people to start blogging and it is now entering classrooms. I believe this is a great way for children to become interested in writing. It seems as though blogging will be seen as a fun activity for children and not so much of an assignment required to be finished. I hope by writing my own blog and checking out other blogs more frequently, I will learn and develop ways to incorporate blogs into a classroom one day.
I also like to read other people's blogs. I enjoy to cook and bake, and I have recently been on a healthy cooking kick and I like to get my recipe ideas from blogs. It helps to know that other people in the world are interested in the same things I am.
ReplyDeleteI agree that writing a blog comes with some shaky apprentations. But, I hope to cope and become a savy blogger by the end of this experience similar to Julia did.
ReplyDeleteI agree: it's a good starting point for tech-savvy kids who don't have much writing experience. I wonder how many kids would say what you say in starting a blog: "I don't have anything to write about."
ReplyDeleteYou know the idea of blogging appeals to me because I think that children might feel a little freer to express themselves in a forum that has no right or wrong way to do it?
