- Frimley's organisation of school and children's personal blogs based around the Point England site.
- We have moved from a totally enclosed, protected environment to one where the blogs are open and visible to all. Children enjoy sharing their learning and love the immediate feedback they get.
- We need to teach children how to comment: (from Primary Tech blog)
- modelling and composing comments together on the IWB,
- teaching students about the “letter” format during writing lessons,
- giving examples of a poor/high quality comments and having students vote whether the comment should be accepted or rejected,
- having students read and comment on a post on our blog as part of a literacy rotation on the computer each week.
- Ideas for encouraging parents to participate on the Primary Tech blog.
- Slideshare about reading, writing and blogging from Langwitches:
