Blog Reflection

This was my first time ever blogging. I do not feel like I have good enough writing skills to keep a blog going. This project or assignment (whatever you would like to call it) was definitely out of my comfort zone. I do like the idea of blogging. I think that it is a great way to get your ideas out there for everyone to see. I think the fact that I got to choose what to make my blog about helped me out tremendously. There were a couple times I caught myself putting no effort into my blogs (or at least feeling like it took no effort) because I was so into my topic. I would definitely recommend picking a topic that you are truly passionate about if you are going to start a blog. It makes it so much easier. I think that if I was teaching in an upper elementary classroom I would definitely use blogs. One thing that comes to mind is having my students use a blog as their science notebook/journal. The most difficult part of this assignment for me was trying to make my blogs informational, but at the same time, interesting.
