First and foremost, let me begin by saying the blogging experience was quite an experience. Blogging was definitely something I had to get used to doing. After subscribing and reading the different blogs I have really learned a lot. The blogging assignment introduced me to a whole world I knew nothing about. During this assignment I subscribed to and read 5 educational blogs. The blogs were very informative and helped increased my knowledge about different issues in the world of education.


 * __ 5 educational blogs __**

Edublogs- education blogs for teachers, students, institutions http://edublogs.org/feed

Moving Forward- Education Blogs by Discipline http://movingforward.wikispaces.com Special education Law Blog http://blog.foxspecialedlaw.com The Education Technology Blog http://feeds.feedburner.com Education Blogs Moving at the Speed of Creativity http://www.speedofcreativity.org Of the five blogs listed, The Special Education Law Blog was my favorite. I guess it was my favorite because anything that deals with special education hits close to home, since I have begun a career in this field. There was this one blog entitled, “SLANT Successfully Used to Teach Students with Down to Read.” This blog talked about teaching children with Down Syndrome to Read. Of course, this was the one blog of many I replied to. Anytime I read something that deals with Down Syndrome children it again hits close to home. I had a little cousin with the disability and during her fourteen years of living, I knew few little about the disability and therefore, I wasn’t able to help her like I wish I could have. reading and responding to this blog has enlighten me a whole lot about how I can help my students with this disability learn to read.
