Kidblog



[|Kidblog.org] is a simple and safe program to use for classroom blogging.


 * What is a blog? **

It’s a website that is used for communicating ideas where users can comment on others’ posts and create their own posts. So, why should you use a blog with your class? Students can share and discuss ideas. It is an opportunity to write for an audience and motivates students to think more about their ideas and writing conventions. Blogs can be used to collaborate with others outside of the classroom.


 * Why I like about KidBlog: **
 * It’s FREE and Ad Free!
 * Students do not need e-mails to participate. The teacher assigns user names and passwords.
 * It is simple to add and delete students.
 * The teacher must approve all comments and posts before they can be seen by others.
 * The blog can be protected (made private) so that only the class can view the blog.
 * You can create groups and pair students together for book, science, etc discussions.
 * You can add video and images within the blog.
