Give me a couple of days to wrap up some things from the past year. Then I'll be ready to think about the future -- Plus Barbara will be back in school then.

Mary Freeman left a comment for Betsye Sargent"When you click on the Primary Educators link on the left, you should be taken to a page that asks you to join. Look in the upper right hand corner....good luck! Were you able to look at the global project, or do you have to be a member first?"

I haven't even had time to check out your other suggestion, but looks as if you are making progress. My 5h grade teacher comes back next week and I can't wait to run through the possibilities with her.
Where is The Flat Classroom for Dummies when I need it :-)

Thanks for making contact. Can I suggest you also join the educators Ning at http://flatclassrooms.ning.com/ where you can hook up with teachers of the same levels etc.
We currently do not run a project at the Grade 5 level, however we are very keen to support you with what you need. At NECC recently there was an active Birds of a Feather session for teachers of that level.....I will look up the responses and share with you...currently in NYC taking a break and doing some sightseeing.
