Using blogs in K-12 classrooms

Over the past three weeks, I have experienced blogging for the first time. In the beginning, I really didn't like the idea, but I have grown to like it over the prior weeks. Blogging is a great way for one to express their feelings. I know sometimes it is easier for one to write things down rather than talking about them. When blogging, you are also able to see others' thoughts on your particular subject.
I believe blogging could be a great thing for more secondary education rather than elementary education. At this age, children are able to gather their thoughts and talk about them. Blogging could be a great way for students to see what their peers have to say about certain subjects.
