Help the Children Share Their Stories

Status: Just started
Time needed: 
Less than an hour
Step: 
2

Storytelling, writing, and drawing are important elements of learning for the children in Vadgam. We would like to see if we can come up with an easy way for children to share their stories, drawings and writing with the world and also allow them to get feedback from others proficient in the English language. We were thinking of creating a blog - in this way children could also practice keyboarding skills, spelling, and get feedback via comments. Can you help create an easy platform for the children to share their pictures, stories and writing with the world?

Hello to all!
I am very excited about working with this village.
Still very uncertain how to get started (This is only my first day) :) But after reading through many oppotunities - I was moved by this project. I am so excited to get started - any pointers?
Many thanks to you all!
Natalie

There is also a blog site for classrooms
http://edublogs.org/
http://edublogs.org/signup/
This is a blog site for classrooms around the world, so the children will be able to see and talk with other children of their own age. This is very good for sharing culture as well as personal stories. The sign-up is free for the classroom.

Hi Amy,
just joined but its a great idea to help children share their stories. I think these stories should not be limited to written but also pictorial based on given themes. My suggestion would be to have the children make their stories and then its posted. Am Andrews from Uganda and studied Fine Art and Industrial Design.
Thanks,
Andrews
