Apart from my personal blog, I also have a classroom blog for my Spanish class, and I've been really excited to see the students checking out what we are doing in class by clicking on links I've posted, and writing what they've learned and how the class is going for them as blog comments. I am so thankful for this new means of communication which can really help those students who want to dig deeper, get better, and express themselves.
This week has been very busy, we continued to grow in our language knowledge, grow closer as a class, and I continue to figure out what I'm supposed to be doing with things like attendance, technology, and general procedures.
I'm still a little at loss for what to do in my Careers class. This week we are making business cards, talking about globalization, creating budgets, and much more. I am hoping that better ideas follow and come more easily. Next week we talk about Career clusters, I'm trying to figure out an innovative way to organize such vast information. I'm sure next trimester I'll be able to work out a few more ideas and continue to grow as I teach this very practical subject.
