Welcome

Welcome to my blog! My name is Bonnie-Lyn Ray, and I teach technology and work with teachers at St. James Academy in Lenexa to help with technology integration in the classroom. I have eleven years' experience as an English teacher and two years' experience as a technology director and library/media specialist. I earned my B.S. at Louisiana Tech University and my M.Ed. at Indiana Wesleyan University.

To Blog or Not to Blog


Reading other teachers’ blogs is a great way to see what educators from around the country (or even world) are doing in their classrooms.  One of the greatest gifts we have is the ability to share ideas.  Peruse the following blogs and subscribe to a few.  Who knows? You might decide to even create your own!

Secondary Solutions is a blog with content specializing in Common Core English Language Arts and National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE)/International Reading Association (IRA) National Standards in English Language Arts standards-based supplemental materials for the 5th through 12th grade English Language Arts classroom.

Head Outta the Book is an edublog by teacher, Deborah Harris, who shares high school literature teaching tips, lessons, and observations.

The Scholastic Scribe is written by a D.C. area educator who teaches AP English Language and Composition as well as journalism and yearbook.  She holds degrees in both journalism and urban studies, so she brings a unique perspective into the classroom.

Other helpful blogs of note are Dr. Pezz, Huff English, Your English Class (focuses on grammar and usage), Secondary Worlds, Enhanced English Teacher (focuses on technology in the English classroom), and Cool Cat Teacher.
