MRS. BLACK's Integrated Crane Projects
(Thank you!)

Teacher Margaret Black has created a flock of craniacs in her Canadian classroom! She is the brains behind Whooping Crane Central, the ever-growing website that shares all her students' Whooping crane projects and learning adventures. She is an inspiration to us, and we are proud to introduce her to teachers who enjoy seeing what's happening in other classrooms. "The migration can become the cornerstone in a cohesive integrated unit," says Mrs. Black. "I hope that's what the "Projects" portion of our class web page illustrates to people." See:
