Mrs H. shares her class blog at "Terrific Twos at TLC". Some ideas for using technology that she shares on her blog:
 * Asking students to retell a story from a video posted on the blog.
 * Displaying photos of activities you have done in class, and asking students to explain the activity to their parents.
 * Pictures of school sports with questions about what events students competed in.
 * Displaying pictures of science experiments (solids, liquids and gases for examples) and asking students to //Predict, Observe and Explain//.
 * Linking to a YouTube video of a song you have learned in class, so students can practice at home.
 * Asking a question and getting students to reply in the comments section. //(Can you think of a reasons not to sell chocolate in the canteen?)//

Fiona shares her thoughts on blogging with a primary class at "Technology Learning Journey". Here is an example from Grade Two. Here is an example from a Kindergarden class about polar bears. Here is another example of Show-and-Tell with Voicethread.
