Introductions

Hello! My name is Brooke Engle. I am currently a 3rd grade teacher at Warren T. Jackson Elementary in the Atlanta Public School district. Currently, my experience with blogging is minimal and thus I am not an active blog reader. From this class, I hope to learn how to blog and where I can go to read blogs of my interest.

Introduction

Theresa King
3rd Grade Teacher
Jackson Elementary
Beginner Blogger
I do not read any blogs.
I would like to learn how to blog and use it in the classroom with my students.

Introductions

My name is Cathleen Watts. I am not currently employed and have no experience with blogging. The blogs I have read have been from my children's classroom teachers and comments on information I have read on the internet. I hope to gain a little better understanding of the "how to's" of blogging. I really don't know anything about Web 2.0.

Introductions

My name is Karla Zisook. I am a 4th and 5th grade Challenge teacher at Jackson in Atlanta Public Schools. I have visited friends' blogs, but have never made my own. The blogs I read are those of my friends, for example my cousin has a blog about her baby. I hope to try out making my own blog in this course.
I am Jimmye Hawkins. I am the ILS at Jackson Elementary School. This school is part of the Atlanta Public School System. I have done blooging to the extent that I have posted responses to other bloggers.

Introductions

My name is Alexis Schneider, and I am the International Baccalaureate (IB) coordinator for my school. I also teach a 5th grade accelerated math class. My school is Warren T. Jackson Elementary School, and it is part of the Atlanta Public Schools system.

I have very limited experience with blogging. I have friends who have created blogs, and I read their blogs. However, I have never created my own blog. I really only read my friend Chris's blog that he updates on a weekly basis. He is working in Iraq, and this is how he keeps in touch with his friends and family.

I hope to gain insight into how I can use this tool in my classroom with my students.

Introduction

Hi, I'm Molly Hudson.

I am a 3rd and 4th Grade Challenge teacher at Warren T. Jackson (Go Jaguars), which is part of the Atlanta Public School System.
