My name is Joe McClung and I am an 8th grade teacher at Woodland Jr. High in Fayetteville, Arkansas.

Our class blog is dedicated to blogging about current happenings in my social studies and computer

application classes as well as the cross country team. Our class blog features use of student-led

educational videos, reflective student & teacher blog post, sharing of resources, and featured class

assignments. However, our website is not just limited to sharing resources; the ultimate value of

blogging lies in the collaboration with an international community of learners.

Students from years past have been able to look inside of classrooms on the other side of the world and

even share experiences with students from another country. As a teacher, I have been able to use

blogging to connect to some of the most creative and intelligent teachers across the globe. Our blog has

far transcended the purpose of traditional blogging; instead it has become the ultimate learning tool for

my students and me. Please feel free to pay us a visit and see what exactly it is that our class blog is all

about.

Parents/Guardian,

As many of you now know, inside and outside of my classroom, I depend heavily on the use of my educational blog. The primary focus of our class blog is to share lesson summaries and class news. This often means using video or photos that include a student’s image for class demonstrations or video lessons from a particular class. The images that are displayed on the blog are meant to display the wonderful work that my students do in class.

You may choose to allow or disallow your student’s image to be shared. Please sign one of the statements below either allowing or disallowing the use of your student’s image. Thank you for your support; feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

By signing below, I DO give permission for my child’s image to be used in class photos and videos on Mr. McClung’s educational blog.
