Skype with Our Friends in Maryland
Today we will Skype with the class that is hosting our Flat Stanley. We have their Flat Stanley below and have created a book of his adventures. In turn they have created a movie of our Flat Stanley’s adventures in Maryland. See our collaboration wiki here.
Flat Stanley in Maryland
Today we will be meeting in your room to learn about our companion class from Triadelphia Elementary School in Maryland and to write a letter on the wiki introducing ourselves to them. Next we’ll dress (decorate) our Flat Stanley in Massachusetts garb and send him on his way. We’ll be following his adventures at our Flat Stanley Wikispace. When the Maryland Flat Stanley arrives we will take him all over Sharon and record his adventures in Sharon.
Skype with Our Learning Buddies from Spain
Your learning buddy from Spain and you have created slideshows and movies telling all about our schools and hometowns, which we have placed on a wiki. Today we will get to meet them through Skype!
Flat Stanley in the Pribolof Islands
Today we will learn about our partner class at St. John’s Elementary School in St. John, one of the Pribilof Islands, Alaska. We will exchange Flat Stanleys and share information about daily life in Sharon and St. John on a wikisite.
Alien Exchange Reflections
Today we will visit the Alien Gallery to view our groups drawings and redraws. Examine your group’s redraws carefully. How could you have written your description better so that your companion class would have drawn your alien more successfully? Use this template to record your reflections. We will share your reflections on the Alien Exchange website and with our partners in a Skype call next week.
Skyping With Our Canadian Friends
You have learned a little about your friends at the St John’s School, located outside of Montreal, from our messages on Our Collaborations wikispace. Today we will meet them in a Skype session! Have your questions ready as we explore what life is like in Quebec.
