>> Hi Leo,
>>
>> I ran a similar program for 3 years.  I taught a course for college
>> students training to be primary school teachers. Local teachers would
>> send us learning objectives and my students developed lesson plans.
>> Then they taught the lessons to the students from our local schools.
>> My students got experience, the local schools enjoyed the
>> collaboration and their students had a unique science experience.
>>
>> A full description is here:
>>
>> http://wikieducator.org/Wikis_as_collaborative_writing_tools_in_science_education
>> Shorter summary here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tc9-CNlIqsY
>> And all of the lesson plans that the students developed are here:
>> http://wikieducator.org/Biology_in_elementary_schools
>>
>> My students were as you say "small teachers".  I learned a few
>> important lessons:
>> 1.  Teams of 3 students work well to develop and teach the younger
>> students - if one student is ineffective or ill, the school students
>> still have a good lesson and the teachers at the school will ask you
>> to come back.
>> 2.  Brief lessons work well - 20 minutes on a topic is good for kids
>> ages 6 through 9.
>> 3.  I used 6 stations and the young students rotated through the
>> program - so 2 hours total and no time for boredom.
>> 4.  My students put everything they needed in a box; they did a trial
>> run of the entire activity in the classroom before trying it with
>> kids.  Everything needed went back in the box.
>> 5.  20 of my students could very easily handle 60 or more young
>> students.
>>
>> We had a lot of fun, but because of staffing changes I no longer offer
>> the program.  Feel free to use any of the lessons; that's why they are
>> on Wikieducator.
>>
>> It is a wonderful thing you have planned.  Enjoy.
>>
>> Declan
