Student Blog is Up

I decided to use Blogmeister (http://epnweb.org/blogmeister/index.php) for my student posts because it allows for teacher e-mail review before posting. It also allows you to add a class password for parents to see the entries. I set up the student blog with 2nd graders. Typing is the only roadblock. They were able to log into the blog and add articles but it takes them a long time to type. I might have them do this as a home project with parents taking dictation.
I will keep using this blog. It is easy to use and has more features like spell check and font changes. Hopefully I will have more time to blog when school settles down.
