Mrs+Whiteman's+Notes

No student edits here please
.....If there is anything you would like to tell Mrs. Whiteman, please create a new post on the "7th Grade Partners" page. Thanks!

Notes to consider for future collaboration projects:

 * 1) students with two partners will also have two evaluations - do not assign two partners to special needs students
 * 2) schedule regular video conferences to instruct 7th graders: wiki access, expectations, discussion/communication posts, Mind42 use, evaluations
 * 3) check list of 7th graders for "moved" students
 * 4) Is there a better way to make sure the kids post to the 5th grade personal pages - many are accidentally posting discussions on main wiki page, class page, 7th grade page - remind them that these places are not where their partners are looking for them
 * 5) emphasize early about not using mail feature - too difficult to keep track of
 * 6) collaboration reminders: positive, meaningful, supportive, constructive NOT destructive, clarity/focus, etiquette
