The miniLegends 08

A new school year has begun in Australia, and with it a web blogging project with Year 3 students at Glenelg School in Adelaid, Australia. Teacher Al Upton is beginning his second year of class blogging at The miniLegends 08, where each child has created his own blog.

He invites visitors from around the world to visit the student's blogs and leave a positive comment. He writes: "I find it empowering for my Year 3s to be involved in establishing their own blogs. But it’s the sense of belonging, the emerging and ongoing conversations, the networking and collaboration, the publishing and sharing, the reading and responding, the questioning and thinking, the pride and fun … of learning … that really matters."
