Some thoughts I've had about using weblogs in the classroom are:
- Generating a list of "big ideas" learned throughout our Science Kits. Students could work in pairs to post what they've learned over the previous week.
- Book shares / Battle of the book notes (I'm borrowing this idea from Pd)
- Possibly a pen-pal alternative to the old snail mail or email method
- Posting homework for parents and students alike
- Posting my weekly news (or have students create the weekly news for me.. discussing things they've learned over the week in all content areas)
