Wikis

**//Wikis//** are quick and easy web pages! "//Wikiwiki"// is a Hawaaiian word for fast or quick.
Wikis are simply quick web pages. Little expertise is needed. It is also interactive in that anyone (with permission) can delete, add or modify the page.

Wikis can be used in your classroom as a collaborative tool for home/school communication, teacher notes, collaborative projects, group notetaking, presentations, research, and student writing.

Free wiki spaces are available at:
