How beautiful

Sarah Puglisi's first-grade class in Oxnard has a blog called How Beautiful You Are. Take a look. At the moment, you'll see drawings of Martin Luther King Jr., poetry, aquarium pictures and more.

Sarah posts on the blog with a kid crew, and help from some older students and her college-age daughter. The blog is projected on Mondays to the classroom.

"Sometimes the kids are interviewed. Most of the pictures are now taken by the children," Sarah says.
