Good idea to incorporate many websites on geometry for references by students.

An innovative use of the features of blog.

To ride on the same idea, apart from using it for practice paper, the same strategy can possibly be used for topical review, or can be incorporated as normal lesson activity.

Further suggestion: If it is going to operate as a group blog (where pupils submit their reflections as posts), the entire question (from the teacher) can be posted on the side panel - Apart from "poll", can use "text" and "image".
