Blogging Webquest for Elementary School
BLOGGING: IT’S ELEMENTARY!
This webquest is designed to introduce elementary students to blogging. Its intention is to get teachers and students thinking about using blogging to develop literacies in the elementary school. The goal is to use blogs to engage students in thinking and blogging about their learning and what it means to them. Topics for the blogging posts will be pulled from the classroom curriculum.
The teacher should maintain a class blog to model the process for students, and to celebrate these new opportunities to demonstrate responsible and appropriate educational use of blogs by elementary students. Reflections will be written by both the teacher and students and used as learning strategies to think more thoughtfully and apply what they are learning to the every day world.
