 * I added a special page for brainstorming 9th grade topics ***

The links on the left are to pages created with our whiteboard brainstorming. Use the linked pages to add more ideas related to specific themes. Under "COLLABORATING TEACHERS," add your name if you are interested in developing a unit on that theme, along with whoever you envision working with on that unit. Bolded the people I would like to work with, but they may remove themselves if they do not wish to work on that unit or un-bold their names and question marks if they would like to begin planning the unit. List a SUB-TOPIC to narrow the focus of your unit. Propose a TIME-FRAME for the unit to negotiate how long the unit should be and when it should take place. You may also choose months when the unit might fit best in your curriculum on the right.

As we settle on specific units, we might want to create new pages for the units (to keep the theme pages less cluttered). Adding links to resources you want to use is a good idea, as well as linking to other pages in the wiki to keep ideas connected.
