Here is one quote from Matt, who is also a 3rd grade teacher in Minnesota:   </p> <blockquote> <p><span>“With blogs, it’s more about the ideas,” he said. “It’s not so much about the original post as it is about the discussion that follows, that trail of comments that comes afterward.”</span></p> </blockquote> <p>We know there are thousands of stories like the ones featured today. We hope this inspires teachers and students to begin blogging within their classroom or with classrooms from around the world.</p> <p><a target="_self" href="http://kidblog.org/signup.php">Sign-up your class with Kidblog in less than 20 seconds</a>.</p> <p><span><br/></span></p>http://updates.kidblog.org/post/4143393807http://updates.kidblog.org/post/4143393807Sun, 27 Mar 2011 16:23:00 -0500newsPioneer Pressstudent blogsKidblog.org users will notice an immediate improvement in server responsiveness as a result of...http://updates.kidblog.org/post/3461024517http://updates.kidblog.org/post/3461024517Wed, 23 Feb 2011 02:06:53 -06007 Fantastic Free Social Media Tools for Teachers: Kidblog.org was featured again by Mashable.com....http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1354867922http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1354867922Tue, 19 Oct 2010 19:38:00 -0500Mashable,newstop social media toolsfreetoolsYes, Reading is Still Fundamental: A nice short article from the We are Teachers blog reiterating...http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1291221388http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1291221388Mon, 11 Oct 2010 08:58:00 -0500literacyblogWe are TeachersblogMinnov8 Gang Podcast: R U Kidding about KidBlog?: Kidblog.org co-founder, Dan Flies, was...http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1277888295http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1277888295Sat, 09 Oct 2010 14:40:00 -0500newsMinnov8podcaststartupMN"HOW TO: Help Your Child Set Up a Blog" from Mashable: Mashable has another story featuring...http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1242476109http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1242476109Mon, 04 Oct 2010 08:46:00 -0500mashablenewskids blogginghow toMashable: The Case for Social Media in Schools: Kidblog.org was featured today in a story on social...http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1213992024http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1213992024Wed, 29 Sep 2010 23:39:00 -0500mashablenewssocial mediafeatureKidblog.orgLiteracy Award for School's Literacy Program: The Canadian Council of the Federation of Literacy...http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1211453110http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1211453110Wed, 29 Sep 2010 13:49:00 -0500literacynewsCanadaSaskatoonpublic schoolnational awardMeet a Kidblog.org Teacher in Vermont!: The Burlington (VT) Free Press did a story on Wilson Central...http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1199917556http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1199917556Mon, 27 Sep 2010 15:09:10 -0500teacher featurenewspaperKidblog.org Featured in Twin Cities Business Magazine: Twin Cities Business Magazine, local business...http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1199854562http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1199854562Mon, 27 Sep 2010 14:57:12 -0500Twin CitiesnewsfeaturestartupTarget Shifts Gifts to Literacy: Target Corp. is shifting its 5% giving program all to one issue,...http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1183278684http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1183278684Sat, 25 Sep 2010 00:37:44 -0500newspaperTargetliteracyStar TribunenewsWe&#8217;re proud to announce that Kidblog.org has undergone a massive server infrastructure upgrade...http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1163944595http://updates.kidblog.org/post/1163944595Tue, 21 Sep 2010 18:45:00 -0500Learning and Leading Magazine Highlights Kidblog.org: Scott Smeech at SMeech.net published an...http://updates.kidblog.org/post/782285055http://updates.kidblog.org/post/782285055Wed, 07 Jul 2010 15:42:00 -0500EdTech Blogger Highlights Kidblog.org : Michael Gorman took time to review Kidblog.org on his...http://updates.kidblog.org/post/585429231http://updates.kidblog.org/post/585429231Sun, 09 May 2010 20:01:12 -05004th Grade Teacher is "Cuckoo for KidBlogs!": Josh Bennett recently posted an article about using...http://updates.kidblog.org/post/549579239http://updates.kidblog.org/post/549579239Sun, 25 Apr 2010 20:52:00 -0500
