Blogs in the Classroom

The blog that I chose was from Ms. Cassidy's Classroom.  Her class consists of 6 year olds and is based in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, Canada.  What the teacher does is make an overall classroom blog then has little sections for each child and posts pictures of their work and their progress.  I really love the fact that she includes pictures of each individual students work. 
To me, this is a great idea to help the kids keep track of what they're doing as well as their parents knowing what is going on in the classroom.  It keeps everything organized for everyone overall.  I would definitely use this type of blog in my classroom, no matter the age or grade level.  If its for older kids, you can use it to help keep the students/parents on track with homework and lessons that went on during that day and for younger students, show off their class work and fun activities they did.
