Have you ever wondered about using KidBlog?

Many teachers use Kidblog to blog with their students.  Do you know how easy it can be?  

What is Kidblog?

Kidblog is built by teachers, for teachers, so students can get the most out of the writing process. Our mission is to empower teachers to embrace the benefits of the coming digital revolution in education. As students become creators - not just consumers - of information, we recognize the crucial role of teachers as discussion moderators and content curators in the classroom. With Kidblog, teachers monitor and control all activity within their classroom blogging community.  

Kidblog is designed for K-12 teachers who want to provide each student with an individual blog. Students publish posts and participate in academic discussions within a secure classroom blogging community. Teachers maintain complete control over student blogs and user accounts. 

Use Kidblog to:

• create classroom discussions

• learn digital citizenship

• practicing writing skills

• create an e-portfolio

• reflect on learning

• formatively assess writing

Kidblog is also a safe way for students to share information with you, each other, or the world!  As the teacher you can set up the privacy settings however you wish as well as have control about the comments and posts in your classroom.  On Google +, I read about a 2nd grade teacher who was sharing her student's Arctic Habitat's with the world.   Click here to see her student's work - along with how she uses the blog on a daily basis to get students writing about a topic.   Click here to see her student's entries and awesome work.   Feel free to comment on their reports as well!  Imagine how cool it would be to be getting comments on your published work from people around the country - or the world!
