Collaborating

• Send your class blog link to your student’s parents, other teachers in your building, and to teachers across the district. Students will feel “published” if others are reading their posts.
• Encourage students to comment on other student’s comments. This creates a collaborative community within your own classroom (on a different level). Shy students may begin to communicate with others in the classroom through the blog.
• Connect with a grade level teacher on the other side of the district and establish “blog pals”. Encourage the students at another campus to comment on your student’s posts.
