On Tuesdays, my students and I handle our school's paper recycling program. On Thursday's, we weigh representative samples and estimate the total pounds of paper recycled.
This past Thursday, one of my students decided that we should have a blog. Zoey quickly created a blog with music and everything. The students were really excited about this creation and readily added comments to Zoey's blog without prompting!
Zoey's blog had perfect timing. I was curious about whether or not students would be interested in blogging in general, but I wasn't sure how to go about asking them. This real-world experience showed me that my students are ready for such an adventure. Therefore, I am in the process of getting approval to create a social-networking site just for my EEKids. Wish me luck!
