Moving on Up!

This page will give you insight into the anxiety that our 9th graders might be feeling.  The project would be a great one for middle school teachers, and also for Chris Corey’s class to look at.  His class is preparing a “handbook” for the upcoming class, full of advice from the kids who have “been there and done that”.

Some (most?) of the web tools used in the above link are blocked by BESS.  But there are other tools that can be used.  The other tools are not as good or as collaborative – but perhaps our district policy will become less retrictive in the future.  Meanwhile – we are all pretty good at adapting ideas to our circumstances.

Hope you find some useful ideas.
