2nd grade students at Martin City Elementary participated in a Skype session with author Cindy Lou Aillaud, writer of the book Recess at 20 below. Students took turns reading portions of the book to Ms. Aillaud and then asked her questions about life in Alaska.
Skype sessions like this are becoming more and more common in the district as teachers realize the potential of such activities. Later this week 1st grade students at Belvidere will be Skyping with a scientist. If you are interested in the potential for using Skype in your classroom, you should check out the Skype in the Classroom website. Don't know where to start? Contact the Instructional Technology Team for help.
