 * Rating: 4**

An excellent resource for elementary school teachers! This site has everything from blogs, chat groups and professional learning communities to lesson plans and teacher printables! This is not a site for students to use but it includes a lot of great ideas for teachers on how to incorporate technology into the classroom. It is very easy to navigate. This website is made with contributions from teachers around the world but it was initially started by Caitlin McPhee and Robert Enga.

This is a blogging site for students that was created with teachers in mind. This site is a good stepping stone into blogging for elementary students. No email addresses are required and the teacher can provide as much security to the class’s blogs as necessary, even going so far as to make the entire class’s blogs inaccessible to just any Internet traveler. The layout is much simpler, though comparable to Edublogs.org. Teachers can create one account with their email address, and then add as many classes as needed. The site is easy to learn and very student friendly.
