Featured Presentation

Kidblog in the Classroom

Sandi Hamilton is a third grade teacher at Mary B. Austin Elementary in Mobile, Alabama.  This is a short tutorial video about a great free online resource: Kidblog. I briefly show teachers how to create a class on Kidblog and how to show students to log in. I also share some different ideas on how to incorporate Kidblog in the classroom. I end the video by sharing a fun math homework assignment I had my third grade students post on our Kidblog.  Follow Sandi on Twitter @SandiHamilton3 or @Hamiltons3Grade (Class Account)
