Implementing a Project
In order to prepare for a successful project I would need to organize myself first! My first step would be to preview some books in the library and have the librarian help me create a cart of books that are geared towards the topics my students are working with. Next I would preview some websites and have our librarian add them to the 5th grade research link. Since my students have never created a brochure I would need to create some samples to show them. I would need to schedule the computer lab for the days we would need research. The more I am organized, the more successful and at ease my students will be.

I think this is my second time to write this but here we go....
To be successful in implementing a project I sooooooo agree organization is the key. Thinking ahead. Thinking about how you're going to communicate this project to the kids. Are your expectations and their responsibilities clear? Are all your materials at hand. Questions to how are the grades to be assessed. Plan it all thoroughly. I agree. The more organized you are, hopefully the more successful your students will be.

To implement a successful project I would:
-decide what I want kids to learn
-prepare all graphic organizers and set lab/library time
-Do the activity that I want the kids to eventually do myself first
I believe that trial and error is a wonderful thing. However, when dealing with lengthy units, not so much. Actually creating the sample document that we posted during module 5 made me know what I would expect of my students should I have them do this activity someday.
