Since I know for sure that I will be doing my science curriculum unit on earthquakes and volcanoes, all of my ideas will be centered on that topic. They are also all geared towards sixth graders.
*1. The class will choose either a fault line or a volcano and edit the class wiki with information that they gather about that choice. Then we will share with another sixth grade class what we have discovered. I will be doing this project.
2. Again the class will choose either a fault line or a volcano. This time they will create a web page with at least one picture of the fault line or volcano and information that they gather about it. Again, we will share with another class.
3. Working in pairs, the students will choose an activity that will either be a replica of their fault line or volcano, a presentation on their fault line or volcano, or a paper about their fault line or volcano. Each will include a certain guideline for what information must be present.
4. The students will create either a podcast, imovie, or a project in frames that shows a skit that they have written about their fault line or volcano. They must include important information about their topic in the skit.
5. The students will use the kidspiration program to organize information about either a fault line or a volcano. From this, they will create a poster that includes this information to present to the class and other sixth grade classes. I will take a picture of each poster and make a frames project from the pictures.

Great ideas, and your topic choice sounds great - with your wiki book it might be very cool to see about emailing with 'experts' doing this research.
