Connecticut Connection

Connecticut Mystery Skype on PhotoPeach


Nothing is more fun for my students than making global connections.  We once again had the opportunity to Skype with another school.  This time with a very smart group of 6th graders in Meriden, Connecticut.  We had a great time and were really challenged to know our stuff when it came to the geography of the Northeastern United States.  Connecticut was hard to find, it's a small state compared to Texas, but eventually we narrowed it down.  The students in Connecticut asked some great questions and quickly guessed our state.  Of course our thick southern accents gave them a bit of a hint :).  In all it was a great exchange and we really enjoyed the challenge.  We are now sharing an Edmodo group with the class from Connecticut and look forward to many more opportunities to connect and collaborate with them.  Thank Mrs. D for connecting with us!
