Mardi Gras!
My family and I don't really get into Mardi Gras, but I did go to about 3 parades. They were ok, I guess.

My Blog Thoughts.................
This is my first blog experience. I thought it would be difficult, when actually it is not. As I have learned from previous experiences, the only way to get better at something in which you are not familiar is to PRACTICE-PRACTICE-PRACTICE. I have a better understanding than when I first started. Each week gets easier and easier.
Blogging can be useful in K-12 classrooms. If someone misses a day of class, this is an excellent way for them to find out the work they missed. Younger childen may find it difficult to keep up with a journal. Since blogging is like an online journal they would have fun making their journal entries online. This is also an excellent way to keep up with the fastly changing advances in technology. Students can also share their research, thoughts, and ideas outside of the classroom. Also, children may also feel more comfortable communicating on a computer rather than in a classroom setting.
Some negative aspects of blogging would be that children would spend too much time blogging and not enough time studying or doing homework. Parents should monitor the time a child spends on the computer.
