Hi, I would really like to start getting parents involved in looking at our class blog and leave comments on the work the pupils have been doing. Is there a way this can be done? Possibly using the pupils’ glow e-mail addresses to comment from home?
Thanks
Dora

Your parents should be able to post comments using their own (any) email address if you blog is public and you allow comments.
Hello,
I have a lot of blog sites associated with my username – gw09wadleyjennifer. I would like to organise these into classes for our pupils. How do I do this? I would also like to delete the sites of the pupils that have left our school. How do I do this?
Thanks
Jennifer
Hi Jennifer,
You can added users to each of your class blogs. The is information on how to do this on the Adding users, setting roles page.
You cannot currently remove yourself from a blog, so blogs you are a memeber of will stay on your My Sites page. To remove these you will need to get the pupils, if they are admins to remove you. Or you can delete the sites completly: delete a site.
Drop me an email, gw09johnstonjohn4@glowmail.org.uk if you need more information or I have misunderstood your questions.
