One of the tools that I want to use in my classroom is a classroom blog. I want students to blog about books that they have read in their reading log and enjoy. I will also blog on young adult literature that I think that they would enjoy reading. I will encourage students not only to blog, but to comment on the books that I have suggested and books that other students have suggested. Here is a sample blog that I have created.

Other tool that I would like to implement in my classroom is skype. I have a friend who is a teacher in Paris, France. She has been looking for student pen pals for her students in the United States. I think using skype in addition to a classroom blog would be the perfect way to be pen pals with French students in the 21st century.
