Kidblog or Blogger

Check out this example of a student who has his own reading blog.  We can do that here!  I can help you use Kidblog to set up student accounts. They could work individually or with a group.  If you want more options for them, they could also use Blogger through Osseo Apps and that blog with carry with them through high school. http://davisshoutsoutsweetstories.blogspot.com/ Here's an example of how a teacher has a blog and has her students update it every month.  Another example of non-fiction writing in action using 21st century technology skills! http://mrsjohnsonsroom.edublogs.org/

Netgalley.com

Go to http://www.netgalley.com/ and sign up to get free advanced copies of books for your e-reader or computer.  I also know that some of our students have e-readers.  This is an adult site, but you could possible help kids load books onto their e-devices.  If you want students to read them, have them start a review blog.  I can help you with it. How fun!!
