International K-12 Blogs


The first international blog that I found is for Sandaig Primary School in Barlanark in the city of Glasgow, Scotland. The school uses this site to provide information for anyone who visits. It offers a variety of pictures and videos for the viewer to see what the students are doing. It is very interesting to see just what the children of the world are doing and what the teachers put emphasis on.


The second international blog that I found was for Room 9 at Nelson Central School in New Zealand. It is a classroom taught by Rachel Boyd, she has 23 6 & 7 year olds. Mrs. Boyd uses the blog to post the children's work for the other classes, parents, and students to view what the class is doing. Also to reach other classrooms as a teaching tool. The most recent post is movies that the students made, "The Lorax Speaks for...". This blog has inspired me to teach outside of the box, one of her blogs shows a project in which they took a bath tub and used it as a flower bed which they call a Legacy Garden it is very cute.
