Tigner’s Blog

I have just finished teaching my last summer school class for 2006.  I have mixed feelings, happy that I now have some time for myself and my family and sad that these students may not have any structure to their summer.  I hope that they will go some place they enjoy and just have fun with their family and not just sitting in front of a television.  I have gained a great deal of knowledge this summer by enrolling in  technology classes.  This is my first blog ever.  I will try to incorporate blogging into my weekly schelude for personal blogging and to blog with the students in my classes.  I wish all of the readers a restful summer and I hope everyone gains more experience with incorporating technology with our diverse student population.

Rememeber when blogging…

1.  Always refrain from giving out personal information in your blog(s) such as phone numbers, addresses, social security numbers.

2. You should always write something that you would not mind repeating to someone else, whether it is constructive critisim or not.

3.  Never use profanity or mean remarks when blogging.

This is a cute picture of your son. It is amazing how much he looks like you. He has pretty blonde hair.

This summer I am planning for next summer,when I can take a long vacation.

I will use blogging to post study questions for reading lesson, vocabulary words, study sheet and quizzes.  I will also us this to have students comment on their job site on a daily basis when they come back into the classroom orior to dismissal.  There should be at least 1 blog for every 2 days of off campus.  For example if they go off campus 4 days a week they should have at least 2 blogs.  If they go off campus 3 days a week they should have at least 2 blogs eyc.
