Classroom Website

I made a website for my classroom, something I think is very valuable for teachers to have now. It's a great way to keep parents informed of what's going on and other important updates they may need to know. I included a calendar with important dates that are coming up. I also included a place for weekly updates. Eventually I will make a page that keeps a backlog of previous updates in case parents want to go back and read old entries. I also put a place for announcements. This will hopefully negate the need to send notes home so often and will save paper. Also, I included a page with pictures of things going on in our classroom so that parents can have a better idea of some of the things we are doing. It was a lot of fun to make and I hope that I can continue to keep it up.
This is my site.

Very cool web site. I found it interesting that you put students pictures up on the web. In our school district we have to get permission from the parents first, but perhaps you did that!!

Our parents sign a release at the beginning of the year to be used for any school use or media use.
