Wikis are a great way to get students and parents to work together on class projects and assignments. Check out this Wikis For Your Class powerpont for some help in setting up a wiki. It shows you how to creaet a wiki for your class. I have created a few different wikis. This lifecycles wiki was created for my different reading groups to construct thier own knowledge on the different stages of a butterfly's lifecycle. The CRCT wiki was created so students could create thier own CRCT practice quesitons so other students could answer them. This would ensure a review reference book for our class.
Ideas for using a wiki on your classroom blog include:
-Having students and their parents add content to the class wiki from home
-You can use your Wiki to share presentations with your students
-Make a class project to collaboratively write a reference book that others can use.
-Post assignments and study guides on your Wiki for the class to work on
-Get your class to create summary pages on every unit they learn
-Encourage students to share links and other helpful pieces of information on your classroom wiki
-Allow students to make drafts on the wiki and ask others to comment on them
