A challenge to parents

I have also started a category “Featured Parent” to demonstrate how parents can use web 2.0 tools to connect parents to the classroom. I will be starting with Penny Lindballe – her face must be getting red because I keep on talking about her work – but she is actively challenging herself to find out how to use tools like social networking to help support her child’s classroom teacher. But parents like Penny are hard to find. At least for me. So my challenge to parents is to 1. have you point me to those parents so I can recognize them and 2. create your own online space – learn about the ways you can help support your child’s teacher – school and put it into practice. Share your ideas. Comment here to show me information about a parent you know – include yourself – or connect with me at lornacos at gmail.com.
