Web 2.0 Tools Go Elementary

Collaboration and communication between (even the youngest of students) fosters learning from an interactive point of view. Blogging gives students the opportunity for reflection, writing for an audience and a published piece.

Webkinz has opened a world of learning and virtual collaboration. (3 class pets and giving all students user names/passwords)

How have you found Webkinz to be in a classroom environment? Are any of the other social media/online tools proving useful to you for the K-3 age group?
