Blogging
A lot of schools and teachers are getting into blogging. This ICT tool is great to motivate your students to write and share experiences.
There is a large section in the training area on blogs and we have our own online area to create them. If you would like one for your class I can quickly set it up, I only need a little bit of information to do so. You will be able to access more information on blogging in the training area, which wil be opened up to all lead teachers and Principals next term.
For now I thought you maybe interested in looking at Sonja van den Heuvel’s blog, she is from Lynmore School in Rotorua. She uses a literacy focus for her students interaction and contributions on the Blog.
Anyway have a look and see what you think. Lynmore School

Quite inspiring… almost wish I was a primary teacher these days!
She is using a literacy focus… I get excited about blogging in support of other subjects too. Using IT to PUBLISH GOOD WRITING to an AUDIENCE about a RANGE Of topics that the student is inspired about… science… art…. history…. whatever!
