Middle School Blogs for Classrooms and Students
I am interested in showing examples to middle school teachers how other teachers across the globe are using blogs in their classroom. I have created a wiki at http://middleschoolblogs.wikispaces.com/ to collect that information.
If you have a favorite or suggestion please add it to the wiki page or leave an example below in the comment section.
Thanks for your help.

I am not anti-blog, but like to point out that using a social network or an LMS system is much more flexible for the future. Many of them provide blogs for students to use.
I reviewed a bunch of them - here
I am trying to load your Wiki page right now, but getting a 404 error...

Hey Bill,
Great idea. I added our blog links to your wiki. I encouraged anyone to read and comment on our blogs. I think having others comment keeps my students interested.
Wikispaces is a great place, did you know you can get rid of the adds if you are using it for education? Simply email: help@wikispaces.com and ask Sarah Cove to make this happen.
Thanks,
Gary Miller
