We traded bears with a class from Russia for the year and are both working on this one blog. Great idea for a shared class blog. I would love to see more shared blogs like this!
What a great idea! I used to do a year-long project called "Journey Bear" with my classes. The bear traveled around the world with my family, school parents, friends, and friends of friends. "He" sent us postcards and pictures (taken with a disposable camera found in his backpack, ah, the old days). Very motivating for the students. Lots of writing prompts and cross-curricular opportunities to us math, study social studies, etc. Technology has made the Journey Bear project so much more doable and interactive. Awesome idea!
