Editor's Notes
- Contacted people from NETA Board, ESU 3, Twitter
- Why read it in a book when you can learn about it from someone who lives it?
- Go to website to show Word Doc & Google Earth file
- Didn’t want to dictate something that wasn’t in the curriculum. One comment has been a desire for more structured activities.
- 2nd bullet - Maybe develop this into a larger NE curriculum site? Make a collaborative space for all teachers to develop. Show ideas page of website. 3rd bullet - Me dictating which classes to start with left the impression that it was the only one they could Skype with.
