Mrs. Flynt Use this space to talk to each other and post suggestion, comments, and get organized!
Meredith B.  We need to make citations for our sources (I do too but ran out of time)!
 joe s.  Hey meridith, nice website that you added!
 Joe S.  Does anyone know where we can post pictures?
 Logan : P

 I think that some questions we need to cover are:  When and where was the phoenix lander launched? What was the phoenix lander's first discovery on mars? and, How long can the lander stay on Mars?

 Lindsey N  we found a simulated landing of the phoenix and we think we should put it at the top of the page
 Lindsey N  added more pictures on the phoenix mission instruments draft page!!!!!!! and captions helped on phoenix mars mission objectives
 Logan :P  hey guys ! i like the Phoenix Mars Mission Objectives, but i think we should add some videos to it.
 Logan :P  never mind...i just saw that we had a video.
Alex  Please do not work on the Instruments page because that page is mine to work on and since we have six people working on this you should follow sakkara's idea. Thank You.  
Lydia

it will be kind of difficult trying to find six different topics for six different people......but what the heck, i'll find a topic

 
Lydia I added a new page!!! YAY for me!! I will allow you to edit it.....just don't touch my work!!! :-)  My page could use a bit of sprucing up, if you guys don't  mind adding cool pics, info, and some landing or launch data.   
Mrs. Flynt Please remember that this is a COOPERATIVE GROUP project. Nobody owns a page, nor should you post comments telling others to leave a certain page alone. Six different pages is NOT what this project is about. If I continue to see comments that discourage others from helping, sharing, and adding content to pages, then students will be removed from this project and I will begin deleting pages and forcing you to all work on one page together.  
Lydia  I really think three pages r good enough and maybe we could combine some info to other pages
