I watched a more detailed K12 session in the Prove It category....
“We Like Our Blogging Buddies: The Write Stuff with Blogging Mentors”
This is exactly the way I was hoping to use blogging. I am interested in having 5th grade students write in a blog. I would love to hook up with a high school English teacher and have their students comment on the 5th graders work.
The teachers in this session teach 1st grade and at the university. The university students are learning to be elementary teachers. Reading the 1st graders blogs helped them understand invented spelling and helped them come up with positive comments and constructive criticism. The first graders were given an authentic audience for their writing and a wealth of feedback.
