Originally, I planned to use it as a resource for teachers so we could network on how to blog and podcast, sharing ideas and knowledge. After seeing so many blogs, and really liking some, especially<br />http://tamakitoday.blogspot.com/ , I have decided to convert "My blog" into "Our Blog" and make it more student centred. I will include their posts and podcasts. It will display what we are doing in the class and around the school.<br /><br />Four more days and the students return from summer vacation.

It is going to begin as an experimental location where I learn along with my students. I hope to engage them in some interesting, "new literacy" learning.<br /><br />We will experiment with <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">wiki's</span>, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">podcasts</span>, fan fiction... any suggestions?
