I am very excited to become part of a PLN. I think being able to share ideas, lesson plans and experiences with other art teachers will be very helpful to my program. I already have a great network of local art teacher friends that I can talk to, but the ability to reach people beyond my immediate location would be fantastic!
I was really glad to read the advice about how to deal with people who leave negative comments on blogs. I can see how easy it could be to get upset about a negative comment left on my blog. It was helpful to read the experiences of Vicki Davis and her view of "Darth Commenter". It was comforting to read that every blogger will eventually meet DC through no fault of their own. The important thing to remember is that if you believe in what you are posting, you will not be as bothered by people just being mean...
I had a lot of fun visiting blogs created by co-workers as well as other people in the district.
These are the 5 that I left comments for:
1. Hill's Kindergarten Kickoff
2. Meyer's Muse
3. Mary's Art Spot
4. Music is Elementary
5. Johnson's Journey
