C4K#10 Mrs. Yollis' 3rd Grade-California

We were instructed to go to Mrs. Yollis' Classroom Blog.  We were to explore the blog, click on all links and tabs, and review all of their material.  We were specifically asked to note how she involves her students, her parents, and other classrooms from around the world.

Well, just in case you were wondering, it took well over an hour to view all of her blog.  It was unbelievable and I am sure her classes have been blogging for a long time!  In fact, if you want to learn how to blog, just go to her site.  She definitely is one of those teachers who has ridden the technology wave and moved her classroom right on along into the high tech world during her 25 years of teaching!

                                         

                      In fact,
                      she has one many awards over the years...
                      like the one I have added here!

Not only is she a great teacher and blogger, but she is very talented in all types of technology.  She has her masters degree in "Integrating Technology in the Classroom".  Mrs. Yollis loves to travel with her husband  in her free time.

I will have to say that Mrs. Yollis' Class Blog is the most extensive classroom blog I have ever seen.  It really is mind boggling and it is like a professional website.  It really makes me feel like such a baby when it comes to technology and I don't know if I will ever be able to do all of that.  She must have a lot of classroom volunteers!!??!!!

Mrs. Yollis also includes many valuable resources for her readers by adding many links and tabs.  In fact, I have downloaded two of her sites to my PLN for future teacher references and resources.  She really does like to engage her students, her parents, and her visitors on her blog site.  There are so many things any visitor can learn here!  You can learn about California, Australia, Georgia, how to take digital pictures, hear a joke of the day, watch a movie about westward expansion, etc.  And, of course, enjoy tons and tons of blogging and comments!  She really has done an outstanding job and she makes her site so very visitor friendly!

I truly believe what she wrote on her blog:
         
"I love being a teacher and a life long learner"!

                     Honestly, I think the world needs more teachers just like her!
