How to Start a Classroom Blog

This is a blog.

Classroom blogs are a great way to stay in touch with the parents and community. The advantage of a blog vs. a daily email is that parents can access older messages easier in a blog than by trolling through old emails. Blogs are absolutely free of charge and are one of the easier things you will ever do on the internet.
