Introduction-What Is This Used For?

Hello!

I'm sure you're thinking, "What on Earth is Mr. Corcoran sending me now?!?!?" Well, to be honest, I'm trying something new out. I've been blogging (or writing a web log) for a while, and I was challenged with finding a way to use this in the class. After bouncing a bunch of ideas around in my head, as well as seeing a few other examples, I decided to come up with a blog for my students and their families.

So, what's the purpose of a blog? In this case, to give information. For me, it's to become better organized. I tend to leave things here and there, and that gets a bit frustrating after a while. This gives me an opportunity to directly give you information that you may need. The best part is, this blog will organize it; if you forget, you can simply look back through the titles and find what you want!

Now that I've mentioned that, here's what you can expect to find in the blog:

  • Project assignments with links for help. 
  • Reflections on ongoing assignments. 
  • Upcoming school events. 
  • Items that may be of use to you and your family, in terms of education. 
  • A chance to SHARE your voice.

There are many other options, but I want to wrap this up. I'll be adding a post or two later today, so I'll get the ball rolling.

Here's how you can help me; make your voice heard. If you have questions, this is the perfect spot to ask. You may find that other students, parents, and others may have the same questions as you. Please ask. I don't mind one bit.

Well, that sums up my introduction to blogging. I hope that this becomes a successful activity for us all. As always, leave comments below.

Thanks, and have a good one!
