Blogging for the Classroom

I teach a classroom of first graders. At this point in their educational career, language learning is at the top of their priorities. Students are immersed into phonics learning to blossom into stupendous readers. Many times writing is not integrated strategically into their language learning. Teachers find it laborious and down right hard! As a result, students do not exemplify desires and a love for writing.
To assist students writing we must make it relateable, doable, and interesting for them to get pleasure out of it and try harder. Blogging which has been used to express ideas and majorly for pleasure could be one of the answers to making writing more interesting.
Teachers could assist students with creating blog pages and have them to write down their username and passwords on index cards and store the information in a safe and reachable place for students access. Teachers would assign student groups different writing times and topics for each day of the week. Students would type their ideas and post it share with their classmates. Classmates could even respond by commenting on the blog.
Furthermore, blogging could assist teachers with teaching the use of communicating when students respond to blogs and the use of expressive, narrative, sequential, writing when students create blogs.
