Although I am new to blogging, I have been excited to explore and find ways that educators use blogging with their students! I love that blogging is interactive and could be used as a tool for home-school communication. Allowing students to post their learning online through blogging is also an authentic and motivating way for them to share with the world and get feedback in return!
I was excited to find some classroom blogs from primary classrooms including Ms. Schwichtenberg's Classroom Blog, a first grade class, and Mrs. Ubell Grade 1/2, a first and second grade multi-age class. These blogs are excellent examples of ways that learning can be shared through a blog, as well as ways in which students can post on their own.
I plan to utilize blogging with my first and second grade students this school year, particularly to share student learning in a way that parents and interested readers can respond!

Thanks for including the links in this posting....I found them very interesting as well, especially being at QUEST!!
I think that blogs will become an important piece that we can both add to the education of our students and parents.
I think it would be great for students to share their learning while also giving parents access and the ability to respond. If you need any help getting started, just let me know.
