Classroom Website

This week I created a classroom website in order to be able to better communicate with my students and their parents. With so much advancement in technology developement, it is important that we utilize this opportunity for enhanced communication. By offering this type of communication level, I feel like my students and their parents will benefit.
At the click of a button, they can access information about me personally, as well as other imforation pertaining to our classroom and curriculum. Thc website includes important announcements and dates, a calender in which they can plan and prepare for upcoming important dates and projects, informs and reminds students and their parents of daily and weekly homework assignments, makes them aware of technological tools we use in the classroom and also highlites our students of the week, with special recognition. I feel like such a website can offer a cohesive unity for our classroom. As long as they do their part and utilize this opportunity, they will always be aware of important dates and information. Their parents will always be able to access important due dates and keep up to date with special events and projects. I feel that by spotlighting students who have performed at an notable level should be recognized for their fellow students and parents to see. This might help them to feel special and encourage positive behavior.
I am excited to be able to implement this website and look forward to the positive outcome of such commication tools we have at our fingertips.
