STAR, BYTES, and ME
What a terrific summer! I've had the priviledge of working with 55 different educators from Indiana, Illinois, and Kentucky. We've had a very exciting and educational time learning and sharing ideas. I can't wait to use what I've learned in my classroom!

The Guerrilla Season Book Blog
In searching for student blogging projects, I came back to Eric Langhorst and his 8th grade students at South Valley Jr. High in Liberty, MO. Eric created a Guerrilla Season, by Pat Hughes, Book Blog for his students to discuss and reflect on their feelings as they read the book. I like the way he has given their comments to us to read. I'm assuming the students have their own private classroom book blog and Eric has chosen comments to share publicly. I like this, and think it would work well with my book groups. For 3-D-1, I sent a post to Eric's email and he responded with a comment to this post. If you follow the URL he gives in his comment, he explains the process he used to get his Book Blog rolling. Thanks to Eric!
I also ran across this article in the September issue of Edutopia. It has an example of a blog lesson plan which you might find helpful if you are working on 3-D-2!
