Many of you have tried blogging with your students. It’s a good way for you to pose a question and have the students answer online, but how about creating a blog with a character host?
A “bear-y” interesting version of a blog for an elementary classroom is The Adventures of Jefferson Bear. A third grade teacher in Oregon uses a teddy bear to relate travel adventures, ask questions about what’s going on in school, and even offer advice.
Admittedly, there is not a lot of regular use of the blog, but that hearkens back to yesterday’s post about being realistic about how often you use technology. Anyway, while there are not many posts, the concept is one you may find useful!
