Week 3 Homework Part 1: U.S. Schools Using Blogs

The first United States example that I found is a blog site for students and parents of a fifth grade classroom in Battle Creek, Michigan. To visit this blog go to http://mrfowler.wordpress.com/about/. The teachers name is Mitch Fowler and he has the following categories in his blog site: character, general, language arts, questions, and science. Most of the students responses to this teachers questions on this blog are very causal. You can tell the teacher tries to make this blog site a fun experience for the students.


The second United States example that I found is a blog site for students of a tenth grade English classroom in Branford, Connecticut. To visit this blog go to http://millersenglish10.blogspot.com/. The teachers name is Mr. Miller and he has links to all of his students blogs in his blog site. The students blog sites discussed the lasted novel they were reading. The students responses were much more formal than Mr. Fowler's blog site.
