Classic blogging
Helen Vernon, the Head at Bodnant Infants in Prestatyn, engages in a bit of classic blogging. Linking to a news item from another source, being The D-D-Daily Mail. Middle class and pompous and feminine it maybe, it has a good story about reading to your children.
I was a little startled to read that 21% of parents still read to their children at ages 9 to 12. I suppose it's a good thing. Just that I never imagined still reading to mine at that age. I'll try when we get there.
So why is this 'classic?' Because the first website, by Tim Berners-Lee was also a weblog. He linked to other sites as they came on-line. When blogging first took off in 1999, may blogs weren't introspective, describing what they had for tea, but were link logs to other good stories, perhaps on other blogs, perhaps on MSM (mainstream media). Usually, with some comment or rebuttal in the blogger's description.
I hope that our schools will do more of this blogging, and even get more contentious. More political. Let's change the world
