There are many reasons teachers use a blog or a website nowadays for a classroom. One of the ways I'd use this blog would be to archive the year and all the activities I do with my class. It would serve as a place to look back and see and read about what this class did and how they progressed. It would be a great way for teachers to also get ideas and learn about what's going on in this grade/classroom.
Another way I'd use this blog is to provide links and resources for my students so it's all in one place for them to access. This removes the pain of bookmarking individual computers in my classroom with all the different sites I want them to visit for various subjects. By providing all the links on one place, I only need to bookmark one site on each computer.
Finally, this blog would serve as a great way to communicate with parents about what is going on in the classroom. They can read about what activities their child is participating in and what's coming soon. I can post newsletters, important dates, and reminders. Parents are becoming more and more tech savvy so they can easily click and read about their child's class.
