I decided I am going to create an opportunity for my students to write in our own class blog. I think this will be extremely beneficial for them. A class blog will be a fun way to practice writing about whatever they want in a place we share together. This will build a sense of community for our students. Our blog will give them opportunities to comment, share, give constructive feedback and reflect on our writing. Here are the steps I will be taking to set this all up.
I am thrilled to see what the students come up with. I hope they enjoy it and learn as much as I have throughout this experience. I will link their blog below. If you are teacher blogging, how are you transferring what you have learned into your own classroom?

I think that will be such a fun experience for your students! I've done blogging with 4th and 5th graders and they've been really excited. It helps for kids to get comments from others. Do you know about the classroom slice of life challenge? That might be a way to connect with other classes and get other people commenting on your kids' posts. I enjoyed reading about how you introduced the process to your students; it's always so great to hear about how other teachers approach things.

I blogged with my 4th graders a few years back. Now that I teach middle school and have 120 students, I haven't been brave enough to try it. It sounds like you have a great plan! Are you doing the TWT class slice of life?
