Create Your Own Classroom Blog

Many teachers are exploring the use of online spaces to create an interactive learning context where their students are able to publish posts, participate in discussions, and access assignments and resources. One of our AT&T Cohort Teachers, Kristin Peel, third grade teacher from Walls Elementary/Kent City Schools, created a classroom blog for her students using KidBlog. There is no charge to set-up a blog for your class on this site and students do not have to have email accounts to be registered. Teachers are able to monitor and control all publishing activity within their classroom blogging community. You can check out the site at http://kidblog.org.
