Solar System Wiki is out of this World! April 13, 2009
Posted by Dottie Black in : Blogging, Events, GPS, Lakewood Elementary School, Uncategorized , comments closedI have had several teachers use wiki’s as a collaborative tool over the past three years. This year one of my PepsiCo mentees used a wiki to collaborate between classes. They did a great job and the extra competition really motivated the students to do their best work.

Movie about the Treasure Hunt (Quicktime File)
Ms. Stevens created a treasure hunt complete with a captured Pirate captain and some gold booty.
The students had to use GPS devices to find and solve the clues so they could rescue their captain and earn the reward.
