We use Blogger Blog
 






Teachers need to know that Blogger can be a versatile tool for classroom use as long as kids are well supervised. The problem is not so much the Blogger platform itself as the possibility that kids will poke around on other blogs that aren't age appropriate. There are safeguards that keep blogs relatively private (only visible to family members, classmates, etc.), so kids are safe on that end.

Blogger also allows group blogs that can be edited by a number of contributors. This could lead to a fun class project that everyone has a hand in. Depending on students' ages, topics could range from "Mrs. Johnson's First Grade Chickens" to "12th Grade Honors English Discovers Gilgamesh." Teachers can use Blogger to post updates on class activities for both kids and parents. Tailoring Blogger to specific needs is easy, and as long as safety features are in place, there's definitely a place for budding bloggers in most classrooms.
