Portfolio prowess
Your Kidblog membership represents the gold standard in digital portfolios. There are no gaps in your studentsā publishing history.

TeachersĀ can use portfolios to glimpse intoĀ incoming studentsā writing to assist in their initial writing instruction efforts.
Consistent results
How valuable is consistency? Kidblog is designed toĀ stay with a student throughout their education journey.

Over time, they create a body of work clearly displaying their unique perspective through integration with other apps, visual customization, and multimodal posting. Parents can follow their childrenās journey on Kidblog year-over-year & class-over-class in a centralized location.Ā Portfolios remainĀ available to studentsĀ after graduation.

Kidblogās rostering feature helps teachers avoid the time-consuming process of manually adding students to their classes. A school or district can quickly complete bulk uploads to set up teachers, students, and class sections on Kidblog. Each membership is customized for the ideal start date, size, and length. Volume discounts are available for schools and districts.Ā

Administrator accolades
āUsing the Admin Pro membership of Kidblog has provided our district, our teachers, and ultimately our students a secure platform to blog, but more importantly, connect with other students throughout the world safely and securely. We are able to easily connect with other classes within the district as well as outside the district and share to whichever authentic audience the teacher chooses. The decision to invest in the Admin Pro version of Kidblog has been tremendously beneficial for our students across the district!ā

āOne of the benefits of publishing on Kidblog was that it allowed students to share their work among three different campus sites. Ā So, even though students never met in person, they were able to give and receive comments from peers doing the same project and who were part of the same program. This proved to be inspirational as well as enjoyable, as they loved reading comments from their peers! ā
