I love giving my students a real and authentic audience for their writing. They need to be held accountable, and what makes it even more engaging is that blogging gives students an audience. I use kidblog.org to allow my students to blog about their favorite books. Basically, they log on to their blog and write a book review or reading response to the current book they are reading. They can comment on their peer's blogs too!
I am currently working to find other classes to connect with. I think this will really open doors for my students, as they can see what other students their age are reading and writing about too.
Allowing my students to blog also helps me to get to know my students better. I see their personalities, writing styles, and personal interests through their blogs.
