Great job Angie. As a parent, I would love for my boys to be engaged in blogging. I love how you have taken a Social Studies unit and turned it into meaningful learning for your students.

I love when my students write on their blogs in the evenings, weekends or on holidays. Now that you’ve begun to integrate Web 2.0 tools into your teach there won’t be any turning back. Have fun and enjoy along with your students!

Don’t feel bad. What’s more professional than planning activities that engage students?

Sleepovers and homework…usually it was sleepover, and do the homework at home…

I sill rave about the voki I found at your site. Great idea and a fun tool as well for students!

Angie, you’re putting your students first; I wouldn’t say that was a bad thing.
Also, congratulations, you have provided your students another tool in which they can learn.

Sounds like you are on the right track. If students are doing schoolwork during a sleepover, I would say that you have connected with them. Good job!
