Hi Katherine,
A few teachers have started their research and sharing, but most of us will begin in November. Each teacher is using the project to meet their curriculum needs, but I think most of us are focusing on the time period right before or a...
Hi Julie,
I have seen the light with wikispaces! I started a wiki for sharing information about local Native American cultures, and quickly realized the benefits of having a shared platform for multiple users to add content.

The project is now up to 15 members. We welcome more, and would especially like to have participants from the southwest, northwest and northern plains area. A few classes have started already, but most are not getting underway until mid-late Novem...

I have just start...
I teach 3rd grade in Connecticut. I have done a few collaborative projects in the past and am hoping to build on these experiences.
This year I am hoping to do a collaborative project learning about rainforests with schools in Belize and Costa Ri...
Hi everyone,
I teach 3rd grade in Connecticut. I have done a few collaborative projects in the past, but am certainly still learning. Some good resources for networking and ideas are the ePals projects ("the way we are" might fit your goals) and ...
