Blogs and RSS feeds

Initially, I chose to present a Professional Development workshop on blogging using Blogger.com, and I wrote as if I were addressing an audience of the 7th grade Purple team with whom I am working this year. As I went through the presentation, I thought that since I had had these folks create a Gmail account, it would be the perfect opportunity for them to get their feet wet with an RSS feed at Google Reader. I did not go into great detail with them, especially regarding the RSS feed, because I wanted them to have some time to use these tools.

P.S. As it turned out, having viewed my blog :), they all wanted to go to Animoto.com and create a video on their blogs!
