Getting+Started

 - Each "Data wiki page" is listed in the left column of the Wiki under the topic ( chicks, butterflies, tadpoles ). - You will enter your classroom information in the data table. - Depending on your area of study this data table may require weekly entries ( tadpoles ) or less frequent entries ( chicks, butterflies ). - Your Log is listed on the "Data" page. Go to the "Data" page and click your school name to begin. - All of your observations ( dates, photos/student drawings and written observations ) will be put on your "School Observation Log". ( Feel free to personalize your Observation Log with a link to your teacher or school webpage... ) ||
