I would like to create a blog with my primary pupils. The pupils are learning French and I think using a blog with a school in France would increase their interest in a new language. I also have a European Teddy project where the teddies travel across Europe and record their adventures. Our School Garden is a project about creating an area of garden from each class in the school. This will encourage creativity and design.
