Education Blog Sites

March 31, 2008

Ten different educational blog sites are listed below. The three that I found to be the most useful were:

1. http://urbanreadingteacher.blogharbor.com/
2.http://www.teacherlingo.com/blogs/couchconfessions/archive/2007/07.aspx
3. http://adifference.blogspot.com/

I thought that each of these sites offered teachers a place to seek answeres from other teachers who are also out in the field. I liked the Teacher Lingo site because it talked from the perspective of a teacher who was in her first year of teaching. She expressed her frustrations, challenges, and interventions used and so much more. Some of the other sites that I came across were teachers expressing things that went well in the classroom and what things to look out for, and other helpful tips that can come in handy. I think there are good blogs for teachers and it is only a "click" away.
