Blogs in a Math Class?




So we all think of math class…numbers and graphs, right? WRONG! Math is more than just numbers, shapes, and graphs. You have to read math equations and write expressions; reading and writing just like every other class. Adding a blog to your math class can promote all of these skills that are often forgot about when thinking of math.

Some blog examples include:

http://math-blog.com/
http://wildaboutmath.com/
http://www.kidsmathblog.com/adding-mixed-numbers/

Why must math be thought of as the boring subject again? All subjects are what you make of them. If you, as a teacher, are adding interactive pieces to your lessons, you are more likely to keep your students’ attention. So try blogging class reflections…see how it works.
