I have to give a shout-out to William Chamberlain for putting this platform out for others to use. I has been a great tool to allow my classes to connect with classes and students across the country and the world safely and well. Super tool.

I agree with Scott on this resource. Kidblog was a great way to introduce blogging to middle school students. It allows students the freedom to maintain their own page but allows teachers to supervise their postings and comments. We, my co-teachers and I, gave students the choice of using this site as one choice of a book project. I would say Kidblog's use is mainly for students, again under the direction of a teacher. I know of no other site that gives teachers the control and a listing for class blogs.

Instagram allows people to stay in touch through pictures. Taking pictures of different classroom ideas and posting them is a great way to share your ideas, plus get ideas from others. -

This tool allows teachers to create review games, polls, and quizzes that students can access with cell phones. It turns the cell phone into a "buzzer" so that students can earn points by answering correctly and quickly. It posts the tops scores after every round which leads to some healthy competition.

This is an interesting site. Is it specifically for girls? I think it would be of value to our school counselor but I am not sure how to use it in biology. I agree, looks like a great way for tweens to connect.
-
I agree that this can be used in the classroom. However, I see its value as an extension to the regular curriculum. Girls need positive role models just as boys do and this looks like a great forum for girls to receive that positivity. I see this as mostly for students because I doubt that students would comment freely and effectively if they knew their teacher was reading their posts. This is the first resource of this kind that I am aware of. I am not sure of any other site that allows for this kind of communication. Great find.
