I spent today working with staff at Christ Church Primary School in Brixton, South London – and we were predominantly talking about the use of classroom blogging to support learning.During the day I was tweeting to ask people to share their own class blogs as I was working with different year groups and it was lovely to look back this evening and find so many all across the world that people sent me – so a big thanks to those of you in this list.
I have gathered them up and indictaed where the cass blogs are from and thought I would share in a post for everyone to benefit from.

I am new to reading blogs, but not to writing them. It is good to read and get ideas on how to create interest and conversations in the blog system. I write blogs for my organization. I love sharing what I do, but I do not care to “maintain” the blog system. My website that has some blogs of mine is : http://www.stjo.org/site/Search?query=blogs
But your approach
reinforces my own opinion that you need more than technical skills these days,
and that customers should EXPECT more than just technical skills, when hiring a
web designer. Someone with online marketing expertise should definitely tout
the advantage of working with them.

Thanks for the great list of links! We’re also about to start a school blog and this is a treasure trove of good ideas.
These blogs are fantastic! Got some great ideas from them already. Missed the tweet asking for class blog examples but my Year 5 class’s blog is at: http://bit.ly/x1T7mq

Happy to help Estelle – glad to hear you find the links useful. Please share any other class blogs from IST.
I’ve just spent an interesting few minutes (quite a few!) looking at the blogs on this list. I’m new to blogging and QuadBlogging has been a good way for me to find lots of interesting class blogs to look at for inspiration. Oh, and Twitter of course. Thanks again, Tom, for getting me going with that 🙂
