Class blogs offer children a unique opportunity to be part of an online learning community. Through a class blog, children can share their work and ideas with each other, their families and the world. Children can also learn about keeping themselves and others in the class safe when using online environments.
Rachel Boyd, a teacher who also uses class blogs wrote the following list to describe some of the rich learning experiences that children can have using class blogs:
Why Let Our Students Blog
For communication
For literacy
For ownership
For sharing
For collaboration

For empowerment
For interaction

To extend the walls of the classroom
To give students a voice

Blog to learn.
Keep theses points in mind as you enjoy and participate in the T1 class blog.
Our class blog is not just about showcasing the amazing work that goes on in T1, it is also about sharing and communicating with each other, and anybody else who accesses or uses the blog.
