Teacher/Student Blogs
These blogs are set up by the teacher and do not require student Google accounts
• Daily Journal
Post a prompt or question each day to your blog and students can comment to answer or respond

• Online Debate
Ask a challenging question or post a thought-provoking prompt and then let students add comments, arguments, and/or justifications

• Reading Response Journal
Post questions regarding a book you are currently reading and allow students to respond

• Photo Essays
Create a blog that provides a theme prompt that students must respond to in the form of a picture (ie: freedom). Provide a “mail-to” email address to post to the blog. Then students can take pictures with a cell phone or digital camera and email the picture to the blog along with a description of why the photo represents the theme.
