Abby,

You can post pictures of all of your students and allow the picture to link to their student web pages.  I did this with my picture as an example for you.  You can also just add links to their pages, which I have also done here for comparison.

Student Accounts Recommendations

I think you should have each pair share an account - which means they would have a common user name and password.  This will allow them to blog back and forth with one another.  Setting this up might be a challenge - I would recommend that your students set up the accounts initially, then have them share their account information with their assigned partner from Natalie's class.  Otherwise, each student could set up his/her own account across both classes, but blogging back and forth as pairs might be more challenging to orchestrate.

Groups Feature

If you want to form student blog/chat groups, you can do so in the Groups feature (see top of page and click on groups link).  I would recommend that you set up a group for each block - it really won't work to set them up as pairs here.  You can post questions for each group you create and track students' responses.  The students will have to subscribe to the group.
