#4Do you think you would use blogging in your future classroom? Why or why not?

I think that I would use blogging in my future classroom. It is a great way for students to share their own takes on the books or on that part of history. There are many different ways a piece of literature or a poem can be explained. Like the poem "The Red Wheelbarrow" by William Carlos Williams. 

           The Red Wheelbarrow

           so much depends

           upon 

           a red wheel

           barrow 

           glazed with rain

           water 

           beside the white

           chickens. 

The poem could be taken to mean just simply a farm and a red wagon, but if someone where to get creative they could link to a multitude of different interpretations. These interpretations could go as far to include the history of Russia/ USSR. The red wheel barrow being the red army and the white chickens being the white army and their fight for control in the early 20th century. The point being that their could be so many new ideas that not all students would share openly with the class. Blogging and being able to share via the internet makes the shyest of students more comfortable. Being more comfortable makes the experience of learning more engaging for students.
