Global Blogging with IB Students

Greeting colleagues! My name is Kelly Grant and I teach Gr. 6 at the new Abbotsford Middle School. I teach Language Arts, Social Studies, French, and Personal Planning. This is the first year of implementation for Gr.6 for MYPIB (Middle Years Program International Baccalaureate).
Integrating technology with the curriculum is a major component of the IB program.

My project will be to introduce the students to blogging so they can communicate with other students at international IB schools. My goal is for the students to be able to increase global awareness and understanding through an authentic writing experience using technology. I also hope this writing experience will help improve the sutdents written output.
