Just thought I would try out the new Democracy plugin for Edublogs, but couldn't think of anything remotely professional to ask. :)

INSET on Blogging

Last week I completed my penultimate workshop for this term on classroom blogging. I changed the day to later in the week and had a great turn out, I always like to think of it in terms of the year groups I am reaching with this training and I managed Foundation stage right through to Year 6 so every year group was represented.

I just wanted to raise their awareness of what edublogging is all about – have a look at my class blog as one example and give them some next steps. The response was great and very, very positive – I hope that this continues and is not dampened by Christmas too much. I am still aiming to get more class blogs up and running at school. I am just pleased with the great response!

I now need a list of early years blogs to help exemplifiy to some colleagues- so if anyone has a handy list somewhere, that would be helpful!

Flickr up next – later this week.

Today I have been confirming the details of a session on blogging that I have been asked to present at the NAACE Primary Community Conference in March of 2007. It is great that people are reading this blog and offering me such great opportunities and I am pleased to help.

So I will be in Swansea presenting really about my blogging story so far – I don’t have all the answers and I still feel very much the novice – but hopefully I can explain some of the successful work we have done in my class.

Why not see if you can make it I would like to put some faces to names! Why not book up here – there is even a barn dance!
