A wikispace for a classroom blogging assignment... "MISSION TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE" 
Basically I want to set up a wiki for the start of the new church year (Advent is the beginning) to mark our new mission for the STUDENTS FOR GOOD campaign... So I was thinking that perhaps a wiki would be a good place for us to record our acts to make a difference...
Here's the address, we will start exploring this on Monday. Students who are interested in becoming SENIOR EDITORS of the wiki can talk to me...

We'll chat more about this service project on Monday...


Have fun... think of all the applications we could use for the above sites in assignments and projects!!!
