C4T #1

I commented on Lee Kolbert post" An Open Letter To My Students' Parents" stating that it is a great idea what she is doing getting the parents involved with  the child's education by having a blog for the parents to view the students classwork along with homework. I asked are there more parents involvement since implementing this blog?

Lee Kolbert lives in Boca Raton, FL, she is currently district manager of the Department of Educational Technology. Ms. Kolbert have been an educator in Palm Beach County, FL for over 25 years. What inspired Ms. Lee to write the open letter to parents was that some of the students will never complete their homework. Students will sometimes state they did not have homework when they did. The parents will never check, they would just go by what the students will tell them. This blog that Ms. Lee came up with will help keep students on target with homework, it will also keep the parents up to date. This particular blog help the parents see what the child is progressing. Ms. Lee have two blogs one for the student and one for the parents. Ms. Lee is  trying to get more parents involve in their child's learning.This is a great learning tool for the parents as well as the students. Great idea.
