In my Google Reader, I have five websites that I follow.
http://twowritingteachers.wordpress.com/
The first site has to be my favorite site that I have been following for years. It is called: Two Writing Teachers. It is written by two elementary school teachers who teach 565 miles apart from each other and help each other implement quality writing instruction. Their ideas are just amazing and I am excited to have their thoughts delivered directly to me.
The second site that I have on my RSS feed is the Literacy Bytes site. I was originally interested in the Reader’s Workshop portion of this site, but it is not still up and running on a regular basis. The notes from the Literacy Coach are still intriguing and helpful and I’m excited to implement some of the ideas presented.

This website shows ways in which school teachers use technology in their classrooms. This site also provides a place for teachers to ask questions about more effective and creative ways to include technology into their classroom.
I really like this site. It is about integrating technology into an elementary school setting. The technology provided is appropriate for the grade level which I teach and the blog is written by an actual technology integration specialist for grades 3-5 and who was a classroom teacher herself! She has a great perspective on things and creates a blog.

This site summarizes the author’s RSS reader that fills up with education technology information. The author who happens to be an Elementary school teacher from the midwest tries out the new tools and posts about the most useful ones for teachers.
I’m excited to have one central place to go to read about these topics.
Lindsey,
ReplyDeleteI "adopted" one of your RSS feeds because I loved it! Where did you find out about these different blogs? I've been searching for some blogs for secondary education, but haven't been able to find any. It's pretty interesting that you've been following that two writing teachers blog for several years. I really love this Blogger already because I can follow your blogs and you can "share" with me and whoever is following your blog the most interesting things that you have found from the blog with just the click of a mouse. I was reading about this in the Google Reader "help" section. I may not be able to read the blogs all the time, so you, the one actually following it, can submit the best stuff.
