My blogging has changed in the past year. Blogging has become a habit for me. I feel more connected with my PLN through my blog instead of just using it as a way to reflect and organize my own thoughts. I am amazed, thankful and energized in continuing that others feel that these thoughts are helpful to them.
Thank you Sue Waters, Mr. Mayo and Pam Shoemaker for nominating Langwitches Blog for 2008 Edublog Awards.
Here are my nominations to let the following bloggers know that their work is appreciated, helpful, and inspiring far beyond their own classroom and office walls:
Best group blog- Leader Talk.This group blog is written by school leaders for school leaders. I appreciate the transparency of all the writers who are willing to share their experiences, pitfalls, successes and anecdotes. It helps me, as teacher, to remember that there are always two sides to every story. That there is someone “out there” that has to keep the bigger picture in mind.
Best resource sharing blog-Kevin Jarrett’s NCS-Tech blog is an incredible resource for elementary school teachers and tech coordinators. I appreciate all the time and effort that he puts into reviewing so many fantastic sites that make my wheels spin, every time I click my way to them.
Best teacher blog- Kim Cofino is a 21st Century Literacy Specialist. Her blog Always Learning is a vault of knowledge, reflections, well thought through ideas and practical ways on how to actually DO what all the theorists talk about. Kim is an incredible teacher who genuinely cares about the learning of her students AND her colleagues by BEING in the classroom with them. I can honestly say, that she is THE person that has influenced my professional thinking, learning and teaching beyond my imagination.
Best educational tech support blog- Teachers Love SmartBoards
Home of the SmartBoard Challenge, is THE resource for anyone who wants to use their IWB beyond the “famous” glorified whiteboard we always talk about. The training videos, educational links that work well with your IWB and tips, tricks & techniques on how to design your own lessons. An incredible amount of time and dedication has been put into this incredible resource.
