2-4 hours per week. The kids will be collaborating in class and most likely will spend a good amount of time outside of class. I would expect most students to want to spend at least an additional hour per day on their group project.Assessment
I will be jumping in and out of the breakout room sessions to get a feel for their understanding as a group and then on the last day when they present the final project.Class Experience

Learning Goals
Students will improve their collaboration skills and story development through working together on a topic that interests them. My own children's writing skill development and improvement from this type of project is what has led me to create my Wings of Fire classes.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
Wings of Fire has some violence and can be a little gory and that might come up in the discussions and their project as they are developing the storylines.
Supply List
Collaboration through Google slides or Google docs will really help the kids connect and be able to work together. Having a Gmail account will be helpful and especially one that you feel comfortable sharing with the members of your student's group to collaborate with.
