Skypes with Beachwood

9/23/2010

7 Comments

 
Most of my classes got an opportunity to skype with Beachwood Middle School today.  We spent 5 minutes or so letting kids meet Mr. Holman and his students.  Today was more about testing equipment and allowing the students a chance to experience what Skype is all about.  In a few weeks, after IOWA tests and things return to normal, we will start communicating with Beachwood students on a more regular basis.  We will talk about what we are studying, different ways we learn and how culture is different in Chardon and Beachwood.

Students and parents: please feel free to comment on this blog about how you would like to see our collaboration with Beachwood work.  Special projects you can think of, creative debates to have, etc.  Good job this week students.  Remember that next week we have IOWA tests on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.  Tuesday is picture day!

Have a great weekend and GO BUCKS!!!
