Day One

One of my students recently had an idea to create a blogspot for our class. I think it is a wonderful opportunity to challenge myself as well as my students to continue to advance in this technological age.

About one week ago, we began reading book 2 in the Chronicles of Narnia series, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. Students will post summaries and book reports to this page as well as post responses to any discussion questions.

I'm excited to see what else we can create as a class.

DFusion!
