The Math Blog/Vlog is Ready!

After researching around the web, I found many resources and have a great plan for our 4th grade math blog! A how-to blog that I found to be very helpful was Dummies.com. I also found a math blog that gave me some great ideas for what to include on my own personal blog, Chet’s Math Homework Help. Then I was perusing the Scholastic site when I came across the “Top 20 Teacher Blogs,” which also gave me some great ideas for setting up my own blog.


I am interested in running more of a “vlog” than a “blog” but I hope to incorporate aspects of both to help my students succeed. I know that it is going to take a lot of time at the beginning, but I am starting this project at the same time my student intern from Towson will be coming to our class. I hope to use her to watch over the class while I make the videos. Between this and the added time I will have in my schedule while she is teaching, I think I have picked a great time to get started.

Here is a screenshot of the blog I have created for my class.

I can’t link you to the blog, as it is set to private. I am going to be uploading my first video at the end of this week, but I am currently having problems with the format of the video, so I am still working on that. I will upload it on this blog as soon as I get it working.

I am sending home a permission slip for my students at the end of this week, and I can’t wait to get started using it! Please share any tips/recommendations that you have for me or my math vlog, I’d love to hear them!
