I really enjoy working with the website. To me, it is an essential part of communication with those outside your classroom. It is an "extension" of the classroom. You can view my website by clicking here.
I try to have a website that I do not need to keep up everyday. I add some things to my websites such as video clips (under My Resources) or student work. I recently added a "feed" from Twitter which will begin to allow me to post updates using Twitter in no time.
I also have my website linked to Moodle sites, blogs or chat rooms that I also use with my students. It is also a place where I will put surveys or assignments for students. I do not have a ton of pictures of my classroom or my students on my website, maybe this is an area that I could improve on.
Please check out my site...let me know what you think by adding a comment below.

Your site provides useful information for your students and parents. I like the idea of a Twitter feed, but it will need to be kept dynamic with regular tweets.
ReplyDeleteI would like to see some photos of your classroom on the site...would help to make your class come to life...or some examples of student work.
Your plan is a good one to keep your website maintenance manageable...you should be able to spend a minimal amount of time with adding information on a consistent basis. Nice job!
