A New Year means time to update the Check out Class Blogs list which has been growing since November, 2008.
About the Class Blog list
It now contains over 200 class blogs, sorted into different categories based on age, subject area and type of blog.
The list was set up so educators can check out different types of class blogs to get ideas for their own class blog while also making connections with classes in other countries.
I’ve worked through ALL the blog URLs in the comments on Calling All CLASS blogs…Please Share Your Blog URL With Us! to:
- Remove blogs that have been deleted or are no longer active (haven’t updated since Jan, 2009)
- Insert links to the new Class blog for educators who create a new blog for each school year
- Add any blogs missing from the list
The list contains amazing examples of Class blogs from around the World!
How To Add Your Class Blog To The List
As Calling All CLASS blogs…Please Share Your Blog URL With Us! post is now over 12 months old, and contains over 250 comments, I’m closing off comments on that post.
Off course I’m still happy to grow our Check out Class Blogs list — I just need to restart the list to make it manageable again 😎
If you want to add your class blog to this list (or update your class blog details) leave a comment on this post to share with us:
- Your Class 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

Here’s an example of the type of information needed:

Hi Sue,
Can you please add my class blog, The Classroom Connection to your list?
Our URL is http://kwebb.edublogs.org

Much appreciated,
Mrs. Webb-Scheers

the URL for the course is: http://blog.whps.org/blizpal/
The course is an experimental model of a social studies Capstone Course for seniors at a suburban Connecticut High School (USA)
The course is for social studies credit, but the 61 seniors are taught by two social studies teachers and one English teacher.
Comments from other senior courses involving studying global issues in depth or having senior action projects would be appreciated.

Hi
http://brsection1.edublogs.org/
I’d like my class blog to be added to the list. My students, aged 17-19, are studying Academic English at the School of Languages in Sabanci University, Istanbul, Turkey. I hope we can share our blog with others to share and work collaboratively.
I’d like my class blog to be added to the list in the hope that it might lead to some cross-linguistic / cross-cultural exchange and genuine communication through EFL/ESL writing.
2009 course: http://cw09ivan.edublogs.org/
2010 course: http://ispacejuen.edublogs.org/
My students are mainly Japanese trainee school teachers, aged 20-40.
Some of the tasks might look very academic or technical, but if there is the potential for exchange, I would adapt it to put more emphasis on the communicative/cultural side.

Hello,
Our Blog is for Enhanced Provision children (aged 8 to 12 years) at Deanburn Primary School, Bo’ness, Scotland. The Blog is wholly run by the children themselves, with no adult involvement (other than maintenance and monitoring). It is a very active blog and a great way for the children to share their imaginations and their passions.

Please add us to your list! Thank you!

I am currently teaching pre-intermediate students aged between 17-19 at the School of Languages in Sabanci University, Istanbul, Turkey.
We use our class blog as their writing/spaekiSibel Taskin Simsekng folder. Therefore, you can find their audio recordings that they have created using Voicethread and Podomatic if you visit their pages under “speaking” page on the right hand side of the home page.
We are also looking for a partner class to share our project.
