Collaboration

Our sixth grade is participating in the “Square of Life” collaboration project sponsored by CIESE (http://www.k12science.org/curriculum/squareproj/index.htm) this spring. Students will work in groups of three to identify living and non-living things they find in their “square” and share their findings with member schools. The project addresses many curricular standards, is not time consuming, and connects students to others around the world. I am anxious to see the impact world-wide collaboration has on learning.
