They (the teachers) are called the Global Learners. Together they teach grade 1 through grade 12. They each have their own blogs but this is the hub of their PD group blog: http://principianteglobal.blogspot.com/ Scroll down on the right hand side to find the links to the teachers individual blogs. Cheers! Darren Hi Anne,

Although I am not sure of their ages, I suspect they are high schoolers. You might want to take a look. There doesn't seem to be a "master page", but the links on this student's page will give you a sense of what these kids are doing: http://jayden500.learnerblogs.org/ Gail Anne, I have been interested in a group of student bloggers from, I believe, New Zeland.

Students in her science class posted their labs via video. It truly sparked an interest and change in how they learned. http://rossoscience.edublogs.org/ Here's a few of the kids talking about the difference it made in their learning. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8946754056617461770&hl=en-CA Anne, not sure exactly what you might be going for but one of our high school teachers took Darren’s idea and changed it slightly for her purpose.

I am hoping to get some others on board as well. I think our school needs to utilize blogging. One of our goals for this year is to improve student writing, and there is no better way I can think of than blogging. I greatly enjoyed your class blog from last year and look forward to what the students do this year. Anne, I will be watching your project develop. I am hoping to get some others on board as well.
