Weebly Project for The Westing Game Novel
This is an outline of a project I did with my class while they read "The Westing Game" using Weebly. Each student created a website and used it to keep track of the characters, clues, settings, and chapter summaries. It was a very challenging project, but I believe the kids got a lot out of it. The doc also has the dates I used, but that is entirely up to your discretion.

Electric Circuits Leveled GATE Project
This is a culminating project for a 4th grade physical science unit about electric circuits. For the first part of the project, students complete a GATE frame about electric circuits. There are two levels-one has specific questions imbedded in the frame (easier) and one frame has only the icons, therefore leaving the concept more open-ended (more difficult). That GATE frame (half a page) should be cut and trimmed to fit on the back of the large diagram of a light bulb. (I mounted the light b
