My teacher I was assigned is Greta Sandler, her blog is titled "About a Teacher." In her latest blog she writes about how great and helpful blogs are. She writes about how when she was at the young age of 9 that she would have long conversations with her great uncle about poetry. Then when she got older, for some reason she developed writers block. She goes on to explain that one day her friend, Pernille Ripp, asked her to write a guest post on her blog. After she wrote the post, she began getting bombarded with comments, questions, and thoughts. This is how her blog was born, and ever since she has been continuing to write posts and she claims it has helped her become a better teacher. This is the reason I really enjoyed this post, because it made me realize that blogs can not only be fun, but also help people learn.

In my comment I wrote about how when I was young that I didn't like to write, but once I hit college I enjoyed to like it. So I wrote that I'm happy that she found something that rekindled her interest in writing. I told her that her story made me realize that blogs aren't just posts on a website that for some people blogs can open up the doors to what they love and how to do things better.

Mrs. Sandler unfortunately did not post since the last time I had checked so I went to the post before hand. This post was on kids teaching other kids how to blog. I think the best part of her blog was she had a bunch of quotes from different kids talking about blogging and how much fun they were having. The main focus of her post was telling that she was really excited and how excited her kids were about the idea of blogging. I definitely recommend everyone reads it. Mrs. Sandler's Class Blog

For my comment I just wrote about how awesome I thought it was that she had all of her kids comments on her post. It really showed how excited the kids are and where the kids get their inspiration from. I also told her that I wished she would have posted again because she hasn't posted in a very long time. I finished by telling her I loved her blog and that I was happy that I had a chance to read it.
