Web Searching Tool

I am not sure if you are checking our Derek’s Blog, the link is at the bottom of this page, but he refers to this website, which I think is fantastic. It is a stepping search engine to use with children, it could not be simpler.

Take a look for yourself.

Blogging

A lot of teachers are starting to open the world of blogging up for their students, which is wonderful.

These students are being given opportunities to share their writing in a way that suits todays young people.

Although what you are reading is a blog, the teachers are a using different site for their class blogs.

I have an example blog, which is shown below, that is there just to show teachers what they can do with their blogs.

If you would like to have a look feel free, there is not anything exciting on there but it will show you the sorts of things the teacher will be doing.

The teachers blogs are protected, so you can only see them with their permission.
