I chose Weebly.com to review. This is such an easy and intuitive place to create a website. There are many themes to choose from and types of pages to add (including blogs). They even allow you to use your own domain if you have one. It is all totally free! Even though the district provides a space for teacher blogs, I can see where there might be times where a separate one would be effective. For example, if you are a high school coach who also teaches regular classes, you might want a blog for your class and a separate blog for the team that parents can also access. (Does it sound like I'm going to be team Mom next year and want to set up a blog for parents to stay informed)?
I looked at some of the other tools, as well. The Toondoo and Pikistrips are good alternatives to using Comic Life which is not on all computers. Comic tools are great for writing. I was also very impressed with Quizlet - great way for students to create study tools and share what they have created!
