Calling All 5th Grade Blogging Classrooms: It's Time to Share our Students' Blogs!

My students love the blogging process, but they'd especially love a way to read blog posts of other students in their age group.  There's nothing better than telling students they have a global audience of readers!

To do this, I've created the website Blog into 5th.  This website will be a great way to connect other Fifth Grade classrooms that blog.

I will also share writing and editing rights for Blog into 5th with teachers that are interested in contributing.

Details:

1.  Students will be able to find the other student blogs on the right side of the site.  Each link will take students to the page that has a list of student links.  For example, here's where my class link goes.  As you can see, this works well with KidBlog.

2.  Student blog posts can be of any topic or format.  My students are currently writing about whichever topic they choose.  They absolutely love it!

3.  Teachers can use this page to write about and highlight certain blogs or blog posts that they are proud of.  This can be a great way to motivate some students.  This is optional.

4.  Teachers will be able to add their "blogging tips" onto our Blog into 5th page.  This is optional.
