Blogging with Exceptional Children

As a future educator in a special education classroom I have been doing some thinking on why and how I feel blogging is important to integrate in my classroom. Blogging is a different way to let the children express themselves without actually having to "express" themselves! In most instances the traditional Special Education Classroom is set in one or two classrooms all day, this is why I feel blogging would be easier to use. I would ask my students to write a total of 4 post a month, which is one post a week, in which they will explain the pros and cons in their lives. The object of these blogs would be to evaluate how my students feel about school, and if there are certain things that I should change within my classroom. In the end, these blogs will help my students mentally by giving them a place to vent, and being able to evaluate the difference between my students!!
