I'm not sure if this is the right area or section to post this in, but I have had a ton of questions about it, so
I want to put it out there for other elementary teachers. Many teachers have asked me how I create my classroom website. I use http://www.amazingclassroom.com It's very easy and takes me no time at all to update it. It's also extremely reasonable. I can even upload different flipcharts for my parents to view at home using the personal edition. This is a great way to get parents involved and actually "seeing" some of the lessons that the students do in class. When the kids tell their parents about a neat activity they do on the board, they can show their parents at home on the website. It really has opened a lot of communication between the parents and I and they love being able to see more of what the students do each day.

That's really cool! I would love to hear if the parents do download the personal Edition and if any of your students have started making their own flipcharts.

This would be a great blog. Would you be interested perhaps in blogging about this sometime in the new Community. I can help you if you want to get it posted!
