The miniLegends mentoring program – using blogs in the classroom.

Wow! Al Upton teaches kids aged 8 and 9 and he is teaching them how to run their own blogs. Each young blogger also gets an adult mentor and you can sign up to be a mentor if you want. Sue Waters, who provides some good tips on classroom blogging, provides more detail about Upton’s work and points to two of his good posts: Class blogs – management, moderation and protection and Class blogs – personalise your blog, a sequence of settings, which are full of good information and advice for any age students.
