Thing #3

     The children's homework for the week, special events, updates on what the class is learning, and just my experience as a whole working with the children would all be things I would blog about if I created a blog when I start my teaching career. If my class was having a special play that I wanted the parents to know about, it would be a lot easy and more accessible if I put the information on my blog than to send each kid home with a note (who knows where the child will put the note!). Also if I needed parents to bring items to a specific class I would be able to post the list and the parents could easily comment on the post to say what they could bring and see what other parents are already bringing. The biggest problem I would probably face if I relied only on a blog to relay this information would be the fact that not every home has access to the Internet. Therefore I would still have to keep up with which families I would have to either sent notes home with or call. In the future hopefully most every home will be able to access the Internet so that teachers are able to use blogs more.
