This is often done by the Learning Circle Facilitator, but anyone in the Circle can volunteer to do it. In some Circles, a different teacher does it each week. It is important for each classroom to select and plan their projects quickly to assure enough time to for other classes to participate. If common interests make it possible for more than one classroom to co-sponsor a project, or sponsor different aspects of the same project, this reduces the number of projects in the Learning Circle. A smaller number of projects makes it easier to complete all of the project sections for the Circle publication within the time set aside for the exchange of work.
