Introduction

Welcome to your Classroom Wiki,
This will be a great place for you to write, read, ask questions, answer questions, or just have good discussions. As members, you will be able to share what you know or share what you want to know. In addition, you will be able to upload links, videos, music, and pictures to help tell your story to your classmates. As digital natives, you are accustomed to connecting with each other electronically. Consider this your social networking site for the classroom. There are a number of reasons I chose to add this format to our classroom; some of the important ones are included on the Teacher First Website--this link. Go ahead and visit it for just a minute, so you know how many ways Wikis will help us this year.
