Check this blog post, Aloha! Genius Hour 2, to see what second graders can accomplish given the right curriculum, an inspiring teacher (Danielle Porte), and the appropriate tech tools. Imagine how exciting it must have been for these students to create the videos and learn this way. Also, note how the teacher is using a colorful, attractive blog to post about what students are learning in the classroom. This is a powerful way for teachers to communicate with parents about what students are learning. What's your take on using blogging this way? What do you think of the students' videos. Listen to a few. Are you gaining inspiration to do something similar in your teaching?
