1) I can use this blog to introduce students to lessons (a format showing how things will run, objectives) so they will understand the actual purpose of class instruction.
2) My blog will provide a direct communication tool between me & the students if they have questions outside of class that they may not have the time to pose or they may feel less intimidated.
3) My blog can also provide students with links to issues & connections outside of the community. I have several links that relate to Buffalo, fashion, music and areas of my own personal interests. As I encounter new students, I will find other links that may be interesting to them.
4) As through my own particular blog,multiliteracies can be incorporated as teaching tools for students. I posted 4 digital videos that feature different aspects of expression and can be used for education. Whether it's poetry, an introduction video, a commercial or narrative, the combination of audio and visual expression helps to reach a generation that was birthed in the computer age.

Hi Jackie,
I really like the idea on using your blog as a source for multiliteracies. I think that is very creative and I'm sure the students will have plenty of fun browsing the video clips and others.
Social Studies is truly an interesting subject that can cover a wide range of topics. Using the blog as an extension to the various topics that you will be covering will surely capture many students' attention.
Good luck and I can't wait to read more! :)
I am going to say you are a bit of a blogger..You have developed a well laid out page, and I would assume you are able to use many of the functions to help promote your classroom work. Looks amazing.
I agree getting to answer student's questions before or after class can sometimes be challenging because time is limited in class with the student. Blogging would enhance and better communication with our students.
