We made it! The 3C class of Ms. Klooster posted thier favorite writing sample so far this year.
There are about 25 posts, all students could get on the blog site at the same time, and make their post.
Hopefully there are many more school blog sites to come.
The blogger address is : 3c@amschool.org and the pass is 3camschool.
Voila!

Talked with Jose Manuel yesterday. I can get classroom e mail addresses like this example.
3c@amschool.org
the next step is to talk with one of the teachers, probablySarah K and see if we can put a writing sample on the website.

Today there will be a tech meeting in our elementary lab, and I am planning to talk about the possibility of having class blog sites, like 5A, 5B, and 5C all having a class blog site that each student can enter portfolio work, or writing samples.
Then parents can view them from home.
The teacher can also publish their weekly newsletters on the blog site.
What's your thoughts?

After a 3 day holiday from school, I am back working with the blog site for students.
There isn't much else I can think of to do now becasue I need to get students started on using it.
I will have them post some of their plant research.
Which reminds me, I probably need a new e mail address as I want the students to use a school e mail address, not my personal account.

Today I am writing in Word then importing the file into the blog site. That way I can have students work at home, or in class, and insert their blog into the site as a finished, edited product.
I notice that I have to do my formating in the blog site. I can't format text (size 20 Catchup) then import the text.

October 11th,
I edited the profile on this website, and yesterday I made a wiki site on wiki spaces.
I talked with the 5th grade teachers about students making entries on this or another blog site.
We are thinking of Plants as a research topic.
I would probably have the students write their research in Word, then copy and paste it into the blog site.

I worked on getting a free wiki site, but the one I wanted http://www.wikispaces.com/site/for/teachers
I couldn't seem to register. I will try again tomorrow.
It's a good week for this kind of exploration as Jo is giving Plato Math tests all this week.
