Blogging with Your Students

www.edublogs.org

After writing a new post check the site to make sure the post appears like you want it…if not you can always go back and edit.

Model in the classroom first before you allow students to blog independently.

Students should follow internet safety rules: -never use last name -never reference town, school, etc. -never give out ANY personal information

Instruct students to never change their password that is assigned and never share their password with others.
