I am a very enthusiastic blogger and have had the pleasure of sharing blogging with my students this year. While at Vermont Fest this fall I was introduced to a free and safe way to blog with students. The site is http://kidblog.org/home.php. This site is especially designed for schools. Teachers create accounts for students and only those on the teacher's list can access any of the blogs.
I've used it as a way for my students to share what they are reading with each other. We are lucky to have access to netbooks, so all students can be working on their blogs and commenting on each other's blogs at once. For me, it's another way to get them interacting with books and writing without really realizing it! I highly suggest that you check Kidblog out!
