When setting up a new blog it’s always handy check out other people’s blogs for ideas.
So I’ve been thinking it would be really helpful to everyone, especially new educators, if we had a page on The Edublogger for links to class blogs called Check out Class Blogs. The list could also be helpful for people wanting to create connections with classrooms in other countries.
So I was wondering if you could help me? Do you have a class blog or are able to recommend some class blogs?
Can you please share with us:
- Blog name(s) and URL(s).
- Approximate age of students and are they primary, secondary or tertiary?
- If applicable, what subject area? e.g. maths, science, language, history, English, Art, Music, ELL, ESL, & EFL
- Country
Thanks to Sue Tapp for reminding me that this task was on my to-do list!
UPDATE:
- January, 2010 – comments on this post have now been turned off.
- If you would like to share your class blog details to be added to Check out Class Blogs please leave a comment on Our Class Blog List Has Been Updated — Is Your Class Blog on The List?

I have a few class blogs for different teachers in our K-10 school. They are all grade 6/7 (11-13 year olds)

http://spencer67.edublogs.org where students have only just begun earning their own blogs after writing comments and posts in other blogs around our school
Next year, hopefully a middle school blog for our co-ordinator to notify parents and get some parental input to the sub school.
I recently came accross your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I dont know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.

Hi Sue, and all ,
Huzzah! is our classroom blog, but the real action is in the blogs of 27 grade (10-11-12 year old) students at
http://huzzah.edublogs.org
Many students are writing about their own passions, from sports, to music to gaming, as well as “assigned” topics.
Sure is thrilling for all of us to receive comments and watch those dots pop up on the ClustrMap!
Hi Sue,
our class blog has started in September for the Subc08 and we are at http://inpi.edublogs.org
This year I have 86 6th grade students, 11 years old and our blog is mainly about Portuguese and writing.
Along the student blogging competition I was surprised to see how the fact of having to use the automate translator was not enough for the majority of my kids to communicate at ease. So, unhappily, I’m not sure if we will be able to engage in common projects with other class blogs.
We are just getting started with student blogging.
http://sveomfirsthour.edublogs.org/
I had the students look at blogs other students their age had created and are excited about learning how to customize their individual blogs. We are 6th graders in a wee town in Central Minnesota.

My reading blog is being used by my local literacy team as an example of innovation in the National Year of Reading.
My school blog is now connecting with students in Australia, France, America, Colombia, Japan and Germany…we are emailing and snail mailing….presently to Middlemount in Queensland, Bogota in Colombia and Washington DC in America………I have completed a whole display on Connecting classrooms and if I ever get to load pictures onto my blog I have a series of great pictures ….all this is because in May 2008 I happened to stumble upon Edublogs…WOW

Just set this blog for my kids (G5 – 10/11 yr olds) last week and they are loving it. And so am I!
http://www.gwagrade5.edublogs.org/
Let me know if you have any suggestions!
I am new to blogging, but am loving it, as are my classroom parents. I teach in rural Alberta, Canada. My little ones are in Kindergarten and they love seeing themselves on the blog. I am very open to comments.

Our class blog for 2008 can be found at http://56c2008.edublogs.org
We are a grade 5/6 (11-13 year olds) in country Victoria, Australia. Our blog is made up of whatever we feel like putting on at the time, all subjects. There is also a link to the students’ own blogs: http://56c2008.edublogs.org/student-blogs/ and we have a wiki at http://56c2008.pbwiki.com.
Our class website, mentioned before, is at http://hoggatt.edublogs.org/ . I have an extensive site with all kinds of information four students, parents, former students, teachers, and much, much more. The site is constantly updated and upgraded, and we are very proud of it.
(One question: why, when Edublogs claims to be advertising-free, are advertising balloons popping up when people roll over random words on our sites? I noticed this when looking at some of the sites posted in these comments.)
@ Mr H
see this – http://openedweb.com/blog/2008/11/11/edublogs-inserts-content-link-ads-in-free-blogs/
^I understand your comments (and I don’t mean to change the topic on this page), but up front, on the “About Us” page, they clearly state, “Edublogs are completely free, without any advertising, and come with 100MB of free upload space (easily extended to 3 Gig) and a heap of great features.” Without any advertising seems pretty easy to understand to me.
Our class blogs can be accessed through the links on the school blog. We are just starting so at the moment we only grade 5 &6 students contributing to the class blog but already there are great things happening. http://berwicklodgeps.edublogs.org.
Thanks for the list Sue. This is a great idea.
Hi,

or http://portableradio.edublogs.org.
Finally, Jane and I work together on a professional development site targeting blogging and podcasting in the classroom. Find it at http://www.portablepd.ca or http://portablepd.edublogs.org.
Thanks, Sue, for giving us the opportunity to do a little self-promotion!

Thanks! – We hope you will drop by and leave a comment!
I am in the midst of a professional development course, and I had to create a blog for an assignment. I created the blog yesterday, but today URL takes me to the generic edublogs page. I don’t know what happened to it, and as this is the only support page, I don’t know where else to ask for help.
My URL is http://wordsrthings.edublog.org
I would like to know what I either didn’t do correctly.
Kelly, you have the address wrong. Try http://wordsrthings.edublogs.org. That missing s un edublogs makes all the difference!
What a fantastic idea! I’m quite new to the educational blogging world and I have really enjoyed viewing some other blogs for ideas and interest
1. My class blog is simply Room 7’s Class Blog and it can be found at http://roomseven.edublogs.org
2. This is for a mixed Year 3 and 4 class so children range in age from 7-9 years (primary)
3. The blog is mainly used for home/school communication and providing further homework links. All curriculum areas.

2. creative writing (22 seniors) http://turtola.edublogs.org/creative-writing/
3. english 1 (36 freshmen) http://turtola.edublogs.org/english -1/
Thanks for this great list! Using these, I created a blogroll in Google Reader that I then embedded in my workshop wiki for an upcoming workshop I’m leading on blogs & wikis – I’m so happy so many people responded to Sues’ call here
The list is at the VERY bottom………..
http://kate-olson.wikispaces.com
Thanks everyone so far who has added their class blogs for the list. I’ve started creating the list on a separate page for The Edublogger and have it separate in age level and subject area. It is taking a bit of time to create so is still under construction.
Any suggestions regarding a short name for the page as the link will appear at the top of The Edublogger?
@Kate Olson Glad the list has been of help. Can I get you to give us the RSS link for the folder?
Regarding ads you might like to check this post in The Edublogs forum.

@suewaters, you have done a great job putting the page together with all the class blogs and also sorting them out into subject areas as well for those in secondary and high school. Thanks for all your help in running the blogging competition. This week is their chance to reflect on how well they have improved in their literacy skills. Wonder what they will decide we need to do now?

Hello world! I am a third grade teacher in Chatham, IL. I recently went to a technology conference and realized I need to get WITH IT!
I have started this blog so that my students and parents can communicate on the grand ol’ World Wide Web. I would love to get in touch with some other schools from around the country and world.
Hi this is our class blog!
http://class2milverton.edublogs.org/
We are year 2 children from Somerset in the UK! I’ve set this up to be a useful communication tool ..this week the children will be putting their Big Writing work on here! I was interested to look at the way other classes have uploaded children’s work!
Very inspiring! I really like the Lookybook widget!
Thank you!
I didn’t know whether the blogs on your list have to be hosted by Edublogs but if not you could include our class blog called A Really Different Place http://areallydifferentplace.org
The bloggers are Kansas K-7 gifted ed students. The blog is three years old and we have received 35,000 visits. That’s a lot of writing, reading, thinking, reflecting and discussing!!
Wow! What a list! I almost feel lost in it already…
Uh, anyway. My class blog is actually three classes, students that are in grades 3 and 4 (approx ages 9-10). We use the blog to share information and activities, and have linked it to our group wiki, where the students have more space to do their own thing.
We’ve tried a few things: podcasting, forums, and lots of comments. It’s only our first year (we started in July), so we’re taking things in our own time.
The blog is called Parkhill Kids, it’s at http://parkhillkids.edublogs.org
I love this list. I have copied a lot of the ideas for my blog. I hope that is permissible. I started a blog this year for my class of 6th grade language. I teach a block of reading and writing to 10 and 11 year olds. We use our blog to record what has happened in class and a place to discuss and post writing. There isn’t any student writing yet, but it will be added soon. Our blog is called What up dawg? and you can check us out at http://newdeal.edublogs.org/ in Las Vegas, NV

My class blog is for my English classes 9th and 10th grade) that I teach in a high school resource room program. Most of my students have a learning disability in reading or written expression. I do have a few with ADHD, ASD, or Speech problems. For all of my students passing general education English classes is difficult. So each student’s IEP places him/her in my class. This year my district adopted the Michigan Merit Curriculum at pretty much requires that all students receive the same content and be assessed using the same tests. Therefore, I have been seeking ways to increase motivation and interest in English/Language Arts.
I am using these blogs as an online journal. We already have a wiki where I post assignments. We also use Google docs for written work. They can’t say that they lost their work.

My blog is a supplement to my 9th grade World History classes (Massachusetts, USA). I use it to connect the history events to things that our happening in our world today. It also is a great place to address questions students have in class, that are really not part of the curriculum. It also gets the students to practice having opinions….one of the main goals for our 9th graders is to master the thesis statement, so I see blog commenting as a way to get them more comfortable with “taking a stand” on an issue. Finally, students can read each other’s comments and honors level students can model appropriate writing for the lower level students.

This is our first year of blogging as a class. We initially began to enhance student/teacher/parent communication. We are a grade 3 class in Melbourne. Putting homework on each week has been a great bonus, parents can see what’s required at a glance. Some parents were hesitant to begin with, but all are on board now. Students without Internet access at home felt a little left out sometimes. We have an IWB, so the blog was visited most days. Students love it when others leave comments. I love the idea of looking at othr blogs for ideas, thanks for the list. I am off to check it out.

My “class” consists of two girls, ages 10 and 12. We do not have a classroom, as our learning happens both formally at the kitchen table and also informally at anywhere, anytime. I have been homeschooling my kids for 6 years now and just 7 months ago, I discovered Edublogs. Edublogs has put some much-needed organization into our online lives and also allows us to share some of learning samples with our formal teachers and interested grandparents. My children learn at home with the help of a distributed learning school, North Island Distance Education School (Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada) where the teachers supervise, to some degree, our learning. I have also set up at Edublog for the parents at our distributed learning school. Thank you everyone for your inspiration !

It’s name is Book Bits and is located at http://bookbits.edublogs.org.
It was created to promote reading and reading-related activities among my older primary students (3rd, 4th and 5th grades) because some of them were jealous of the older students’ blogging on my other site, which I created almost 2 years ago (http://lgeslibrary.edublogs.org). I plan to focus on including student responses to literature and already have some book videos created by 4th graders posted!
Our school is located in Kentucky, USA. Please come visit!
I use this blog to connect all my students blogs and also to give them tasks each week. They are K12 students and I certainly will miss them when they graduate this spring.

Hi, I teach year three and four (grade 2 and 3). Our blog is named The Wocket Spot, after our class name ‘The Wockets of Room Five’. (From Dr. Seuss’ ‘There’s a Wocket in my Pocket.
My school is Russell Street School, Palmerston North, New Zealand.
http://thewocketspot.edublogs.org/
The main reason I started this blog was to create an alternative home-school link for the parents to see what is going on in the classroom.
Thanks

Hi,
I have been setting up a blog for our Preps at Parkhill Primary School, Melbourne, Australia.
It is a work in progress! I have thought long and hard about how best to utilise a blog in a Prep Classroom. So here I am ready to go in term 3!
I hope it will be a great home school link for our Preps.

Hi, my Year 5/6 class (in Victoria, Australia) and I are reasonably new to blogging, and we would love to extend the audience for our blogs beyond our classroom walls. Please visit our blogs (student blogs are linked to the class blog) and feel free to add comments. Likewise, we would love to read other student blogs, and be able to post comments on them!

Thanks for visiting!

We are a class of fourth grade bloggers in New Hampshire. On our family blog, we publish class news for all the families and friends of our class.
http://www.missblessings.edublogs.org
We also have a blog for each student, and the students publish their writing all year long. We use the Six Traits rubrics to write comments to other fourth graders in our district about our writing, but we are looking for other classes to join us! Would your class be interested in commenting and receiving comments on writing pieces? We are located in a gorgeous rural area, and we are interested in “seeing” more of the world through our blogging. We would love to hear from you.

Hi Sue,
Just letting you know that my http://www.5nt.ca (www.grade5nt.edublogs.org) site is no longer active this year.
It has been replaced by http://www.MrToft.ca (www.mrtoft.edublogs.org). Once again it is a blog that all of my grade 5 students (age 10) contribute to.
