Now This Is Engagement

Anyone who has been reading my latest blogs know that I am in the early stages of blogging with my students.  I just have to share this with anyone who is skeptical about blogging in schools.  I have two students that all year I have been on their case to pay attention, hand in work on time, participate in group discussions, etc.  Since we have started blogging as a class these two students have gone above and beyond what I ever expected from any of my students.  They are providing meaningful connections to the blog prompts, encouraging and challenging other posts and are so insanely engaged in learning that it takes my freakin’ breath away.  I am not going to tell you who they are, but read our class blog and I have no doubt that you will find maturity and depth far beyond the average grade seven student.  Trust me!
