In fact there will be a new release of Google Sites available to all in the near future. I recommend Google Sites for all students especially since you can control the sharing settings which I think is good for our youngest students. However, I like other sites for creating professional portfolios or blogs. I don't necessarily recommend these sites for use with students, but wanted to point them out to you as you decide what is best for you. I use many of these in my professional practice and have included them as artifacts for Educator Effectiveness and when applying for jobs.

Reflect on your learning journey! Taking a few moments to think about what went well and where you may have encountered obstacles or failed in the process if vital to growth. This is something we have been asked to do as part of Educator Effectiveness and something we should be asking our students to do.
