Wow! The wild world of blogs! I have engaged with them as a reader for a long time now, but have never ventured in as an author. I guess I am ready to start creating my own news. :)
I am hopeful that my blog will help support the work I do by creating a portfolio of tools that have worked well in the classroom. That way, I can return to them myself, and share them with others. At this point, my students would not be interacting with this blog, but I am hoping their parents might find it helpful to see what works in the classroom.
My only real concern about educational blogging is that I won't use it regularly or properly and it won't actually be relevant. I want it to be useful. I want the time spent to be worth something.

I too am a special education teacher and definitely hear you when it comes to wanting to make this relevant and useful. There's so many hats we already wear on a daily basis. I'm torn between how my students would not only be able to access the material I could provide through a blog, but then how the parents and community could also find it of use. Hard to not wonder if it will be a waste of time.
