Managing the New Monsters

We're into the first real week of the Monsters Project and some new teachers have been attracted this year. I emphacize that this is a "starter" project for teachers wanting to get involved with global education. I am adding a wiki to to the project this year - it has been basically web-based in the past, that is, participants send me their contributions or links and I add them to the project web site. The wiki will be an experiment to see who wants to try it, to use it to add content and share learning and fun with other monster makers. I haven't quite decided upon the directions for using the wiki - maybe start with riddles, maybe literacy lessons related to the monsters theme, or maybe whatever someone thinks might be interesting to the rest of the group. At any rate - here we go again - a project based on teamwork, locally and across state and country lines. Don't even ask how it fits into standardized testing requirements ...
